Members of the Handel and Haydn Society – Aisslinn Nosky and Susanna Ogata, violin; Guy Fishman, cello; Ian Watson, harpsichord – will perform an exhilirating program of Baroque chamber works by Vivaldi. Founded in Boston in 1815, the Handel and Haydn Society (H&H) is considered America’s oldest continuously performing arts organization and will celebrate its Bicentennial in 2015. Its Period Instrument Orchestra and Chorus are internationally recognized in the field of Historically Informed Performance, using the instruments and techniques of the composer’s time. Under Artistic Director Harry Christophers’ leadership, H&H’s mission is to enrich life and influence culture by performing Baroque and Classical music at the highest levels of artistic excellence, and by providing engaging, accessible, and broadly inclusive music education and training activities. H&H’s esteemed tradition of innovation and excellence began in the 19th century with the US premieres of Handel’s complete Messiah (1818), Haydn’s The Creation (1819), Verdi’s Requiem (1878), and Bach’s St. Matthew Passion (1879). H&H can be heard frequently on WGBH/99.5 Classical, NPR, and American Public Media, as well as on its recent recordings of a Mozart trilogy on the CORO label.
