To celebrate PBO’s abundance of talent, each season will now feature a program curated by an orchestra member. First up is our esteemed leader, Carla Moore, in a concert that delves into Georg Philipp Telemann’s vast musical cupboard. We explore a kaleidoscope of textures and styles, from the musings of solo lute to a declamatory overture for the full cohort of strings. Further contrast abounds with French and Italian works by two of Telemann’s likely influencers, Joseph Bodin de Boismortier and Francesco Durante.

Program includes

• Georg Philipp Telemann Overture-Suite in A Minor for Strings and Basso Continuo
• Joseph Bodin de Boismortier Sonata No. 6 in C Major for Two Violoncellos, Opus 14, No. 6
