(1659-1695) Fantasia in Three Parts Upon a Ground, Z. 731 GEORG FRIDERIC HANDEL (1732-1809) Concerto Grosso in D major, Op. 6 No. 5 JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH (1685-1750) Am Abend aber desselbigen Sabbats, BWV 42 — Intermission — GEORG FRIDERIC HANDEL (1732-1809) Concerto Grosso in B-flat major, Op. 3 No. 2 IGOR STRAVINSKY (1882-1971) Danses concertantes Catherine Haight soprano Kathryn Weld mezzo-soprano Howard Fankhauser tenor Michael Drumheller baritone ORCHESTRA SEATTLE SEATTLE CHAMBER SINGERS George Shangrow conductor Bach's cantata BWV 42 offers a rare treat: an instrumental sinfonia that is likely derived from a lost orchestral suite or Brandenburg-style concerto. Sharing the stage are a pair of Handel concerti grossi, a Purcell Fantasia for three violins and continuo, and Stravinsky's Danses concertates, a tuneful composition for chamber orchestra (later choreographed by Balanchine) that evokes the concerto grosso forms of the Baroque masters.
