All Roads Lead to Mozart: A Celebration of Connection

To close the season, we trace the ground bass through creative composers like Gluck, Handel, and Michael Haydn as we strum our way to the young prodigy who would redefine early music. Gluck’s Sinfonia in F Major opens the program with elegance and drama, setting the stage for the intricate brilliance of Handel’s Passacaille from Radamisto.

Michael Haydn, often overshadowed by his more famous brother, steps into the spotlight with his Sinfonia in G Major from Applausus, showcasing the sparkling energy that undoubtedly caught Mozart’s ear. Virtuosic horns and strings shine throughout, leading to a triumphant finale with Mozart’s Divertimento in D Major. This joyful season finale is a testament to the enduring dialogue between composers across generations.
