Mississippi Symphony Orchestra: Baroque Splendor

A winning opener showcases strings with Italian and German treats that sweep from bright and lively to absorbing and deep. Harpsichord soloist Shawn Leopard holds the spotlight with J.S. Bach?s breathtaking Harpsichord Concerto No. 1 in an evening that also brims with works by Vivaldi, Geminiani and Corelli. Telemann?s Overture Suite ?La Bizarre,? renowned for its wit, harmonic surprises and more, wraps up the concert in a big, fun bow.
