Armonico Consort
Work:: Armonico Consort (S1568632826)
Armonico Consort was formed in 2001 and specialises in baroque and renaissance music.
Production:: (T0370816760)
Armonico Consort had the privilege of being the first group to perform Vivaldi's Four Seasonswith Nicola Benedetti in 2005 at the Hampton COurt Palace Festival, shortly after she won the BBC Young Musician of the Year. Since then, Nicola's global career has blossomed as she becomes one of the greatest violinists in the world. For this performance, Nicola uses her new Baroque bow and will also substitute the strings on her 1717 Stradivarius (build 5 years before this work was written) with gut strings to create a perfect peiod instrument for the work. The Four Seasons is perfectly complimented by the rarely performed but brilliant Beatus Vir. A work similar in structure and vibrancy to Vivaldi's Gloria, it is packed full of joyous, serene and beautiful melodies, set to create a Valentine's concert like no other.
