Mark-Hilliard Wilson would like to share a program celebrating the majesty of the Baroque with some of its greatest composers. He begins with Johann Sebastian Bach's collaboration with the great lutenist, Sylvius Leopold Weiss. He will then segue from the 1670s to the early 2000s with a pairing of two pieces, one by French Baroque composer Francesco Corbetta and the other byAndrew York, a contemporary instrumentalist from California. The program concludes with music by Spanish masters from Catalonia.
