High baroque music. 12+ Automatic translate

A new meeting of the subscription “Music of Three Centuries” is dedicated to two giants of the Baroque era - Bahu and Handel.

The work of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685–1750) and Georg Friedrich Handel (1685–1759) was the final stage of the Baroque musical culture. Their works surprisingly combined all the best achievements of previous eras: the art of polyphony by German organists, the homophonic style of Italian opera and French dance music. They inherited the traditions of instrumental music concerto grosso and folk songs. The chamber ensemble “Soloists of St. Petersburg” will play the best compositions by Bach and Handel, and the musicologist Larisa Vorontsovskaya will accompany the performance with an interesting story about this music and its authors.
