A Summer Baroque Carnival with Red Priest
Thursday 4th June, 7.30pm, Chapel of the Ascension, University of Chichester, College Lane
For our third concert of the year we are delighted to present a Summer Baroque Carnival with the World's Most Extraordinary Baroque Quartet: Piers Adams (recorders), Julia Bishop (violin), Angela East (cello) and David Wright (harpsichord), the University of Chichester Conservatoire Baroque Orchestra and vocal student Imogen-Leigh Martin. The programme will feature thrilling Baroque music by Telemann, Vivaldi, Corelli, Bach, Pergolesi and more!
Red Priest
“For sheer technical wizardry, charismatic showmanship and expressive devilment, Red Priest is in an exhilarating class of its own”
BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE
Recently described in the New York Times as ‘the wildly virtuosic little band’ has been at the cutting edge of baroque music performance for over a quarter of a century. Formed in 1997 and named after the original ‘red priest’ Antonio Vivaldi - the quartet has developed a truly unique style, combining high-energy performance, boundary crossing arrangements and theatrical presentation, delighting audiences across the globe. Red Priest has crossed the Atlantic for over 50 coast-to-coast tours of America, Mexico, Cuba and Canada, as well as performing in prestigious festivals in almost every European country, Russia, Ukraine, Israel, Lebanon, Japan, China, Malaysia, Australia and New Zealand. The group has given numerous radio and TV broadcasts, including a fly-on-the-wall documentary for The South Bank Show in 2005, which attracted a million viewers.
