Venice: Darkness to Light

City of London Sinfonia under Stephen Layton explores the sounds of La Serenissima, from JS Bach’s take on two of the watery city’s most musical sons – Pergolesi’s ‘Stabat Mater’ (countertenor Alex Potter and soprano Elin Manahan Thomas) and a keyboard concerto based on Vivaldi. Plus, John Adams’s interpretation of Liszt’s ‘The Black Gondola’, and Stravinsky’s re-imagining of Pergolesi’s comedy ‘Pulcinella’.
