Trio Settecento (J Henry Fair)
Rachel Barton Pine, John Mark Rozendaal and David Schrader formed the Trio Settecento (Trio of the 17th Century) in 1996, specifically to record Handel's violin sonatas. Now a performing and touring group, they're making their New York Debut this Thursday at the Frick Museum (we'll open our evening with a little Handelian preview).
Later on, we'll hear Ralph Vaughan Williams's light-hearted take on Aristophanes as Sir Adrian Boult leads the London Philharmonic Orchestra in incidental music for "The Wasps." Also, today marks the birthday of the great British mezzo-soprano Dame Janet Baker (b. 1933). We'll celebrate with Mahler's "Liebst du um Schönheit" and Sir Edward Elgar's cantata "The Music Makers" (again with Sir Adrian Boult and the London Phil).
