    In the long history of the San Diego Early Music Society, Concerto Köln holds a very special place. Not only have they become dear friends, but they are also a consistent audience favorite. For their sixth appearance, they will share the stage with star violinist Shunske Sato and virtuoso recorder player Max Volbers in another thrilling program of baroque gems by Telemann, Vivaldi, Handel, Sammartini, and the reconstructed violin concerto BWV 1052R by J. S. Bach.

  • Gli Incogniti

    St. James by-the-Sea 743 Prospect St, La Jolla, CA, United States

    In a season full of audience favorites, this is the debut we’ve long anticipated. Violinist extraordinaire Amandine Beyer and her ensemble Gli Incogniti—hailed across Europe and Asia—have been rarer guests in the United States. Their program explores the “bewitching and endlessly inventive” (Gramophone) music of Nicola Matteis, as well as works by Henry Purcell. The performance promises to be “rich in spontaneity and a sense of exploration, wonderfully addictive” (Gramophone).
