Kadesha by Vivaldi, Bach, J. S., Sollima, Aπό (2024/2024), αγωγός Jonian Ilias Kadesha, Espoo Cultural Centre (Espoon kulttuurikeskus), Espoo, Finland

Bach's donation to Christian Ludwig, border count of Brandenburg, did not leave a deep mark on the Baroque period, as the collection of six concertos was not heard until the 19th century. Nowadays, it is one of the most popular classics of baroque instrumental music, which is the red thread for Tapiola Sinfonietta's autumn Bach festival. First, the fourth concerto, composed for violin, two flutes and strings, and the most famous third concerto, composed only for strings, will be heard. They will be accompanied by Vivaldi's "Suurmoguli" violin concerto, which Bach later arranged for organ, and Giovanni Sollima's (b. 1962) new-age TYCHE concerto. Its title refers to the ancient Greek goddess of fortune, but the musical cues stretch from Byrd, Dowland and Vivaldi to our own day.
