Richard Egarr Guest Director, Harpsichord, Fortepiano
Satu Vänskä Lead Violin

One of the world's finest keyboard players, respected conductor and historian, and director of the Academy of Ancient Music, musical firebrand Richard Egarr directs this concert of rousing Baroque music from the harpsichord and performs Mozart's delightful Piano Concerto No.12 on the fortepiano.

Egarr's program displays all the invention and innovation that abounded through the 17th and 18th centuries, calling on virtuosic techniques that still excite the ear. Egarr introduces the music in talks one hour before each concert.

Satu Vänskä is soloist in a dashing Vivaldi concerto on the ACO's Stradivarius violin.

“’The Bernstein of Early Music’… He’s one of the most exciting and delightful musicians of our time.” National Public Radio
