Across the Waters – Italian music in the British Isles with Amanda Beranek, triple harp, Lydia Becker, baroque violin, and Nathan Francisco, baroque cello.

The violin emerged as a virtuosic instrument in 17th-century Italy, but its popularity quickly spread throughout Europe thanks to itinerant musicians. As the instrument found its way to the British Isles, an exciting fusion of sounds combined Italian virtuosity and traditional music. This program includes works by Corelli, Matteis, and Playford.
