Les Arts Florissants
The ensemble Les Arts Florissants (The Flourishing Arts)
has created quite a name for itself in the world of Baroque music; they've also staked a claim to some of Mozart's works. Next week, they perform Mozart's grand opera seria "Idomeneo" at the Mostly Mozart Festival. We'll hear them in action tonight with Mozart's Mass in C Minor; William Christie conducts.
Also on the plate: Handel and Haydn with the Academy of Ancient Music and the Haydn-Ensemble Berlin (you can guess which group performs which). Flutist Eugenia Zuckerman and the Shanghai String Quartet evoke the northern Andes with Alberto Ginastera's "Impresiones de la Puna"; we'll also hear music from Puerto Rican composer Roberto Sierra as guitarist Manuel Barrueco solos in the "Concierto Barroco."
