Corelli - Concerto Grosso opus 6 no. 1
Handel - Concerto Grosso opus 6 no. 10
Vivaldi - Concerto Grosso opus 3
Andrew McDonald - Concerto Grosso No. 2
Peter breiner - Beatles Concerto Grosso No. 1

The concerto grosso, Italian for big concerto, is an 18th ce...ntury form of music in which a small group of instruments is contrasted with a large group - sometimes playing together, sometimes playing seperately or echoing one another. Baroque composers often used two violins and a cello as the small group and a string orchestra as the large group.

Andrew McDonald was inspired by Handel as was Peter Breiner, who arranged Beatle tunes... She Loves You, Lady Madonna, Penny Lane and Fool on the Hill in the concerto grosso style.

$26 adults/$22 students & seniors

Tickets available September 4, 2009.

He is currently on faculty at McGill University and from 2004-08 was concertmaster of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. He will be playing and leading in kappelmeister style - without conductor - which was common in the Baroque era.
