Cambridge Early Music Concerts 2012
CONCERTI FOR CHRISTMAS
The Musical and Amicable Society
7.30pm, Saturday 15 December, 2012
The original Musical and Amicable Society was founded in Birmingham in 1762, and its musicians would gather at Cooke's tavern
in the Cherry Orchard "for practice and recreation"!
The modern-day incarnation of this historic society is a collective of
professional period-instrument specialists. Their presiding ethos is one of chamber music, where each and every performer has
a significant role to play.
Their programme includes concertos for bassoon, recorder, viola d'amore, and harpsichord by Vivaldi,
Pisendel, Telemann and C.P.E. Bach, as well as Corelli's 'Christmas Concerto'.
