Baroque Inspirations: Concert champêtre, FP 49 Poulenc (+3 More)

Join Maxim Emelyanychev on his entertaining annual expedition to rediscover the sumptuous splendours of Baroque music – in the company of more recent composers who have been inspired by it.

Alongside the dazzling virtuosity of Vivaldi’s dynamic D minor Concerto, Maxim delves into theatrical evocations of the roaring wind and dashing hunt in colourful movements from Rameau’s final opera.

Maxim takes to the keyboard himself for the homespun wit and mischief of Poulenc’s ‘rustic’ harpsichord concerto. Stravinsky mined 18th-century Italian manuscripts to concoct his comic tale of love and disguise in Pulcinella – and changed the course of music in the process.
