Peter Whelan leads a program anchored in Vivaldi’s propulsive string writing, paired with a newly commissioned concerto by Philharmonia composer-in-residence Tarik O’Regan. Vivaldi’s Overture to L’Olimpiade and concertos from L’Estro armonico—works built on rhythm, contrast, and forward motion—helped define the Baroque concerto. 

Concert: 2:30 pm.
