Segreti barocchi: An Italian in Scotland. Concert with the Aqua Felix Ensemble

The Italian Cultural Institute wants to highlight lesser known Baroque music in the concert series "Segreti Barocchi". The first one: a concert with the ensemble Aqua Felix, with Maria De Martini (flute), Silvia De Maria (viola da gamba) and Giorgia Zanin (theorb). The program consists of pieces by Francesco Barsanti, one of the most interesting Italian musicians in the UK during the first half of the 18th century. He expertly combined the formal with the popular and the Italian with the local.
