Seattle Baroque fans will recall the beautiful partnership between the Orchestra and the Whim W’Him Contemporary Dance company that resulted in stunning new choreography for Pergolesi’s famous Stabat Mater. Rachell Ellen Wong and Olivier Wevers join forces to make a new creation based on J. S. Bach’s Concerto for 2 violins and strings, BWV 1043.
Presented with four dancers and Seattle Baroque Orchestra, Pas de Deux will challenge your expectations of old and new. The program will feature additional instrumental works by Pisendel, Fasch, Telemann, Scarlatti, and Durante.
Note: Virtual tickets are also available, but the event will not be livestreamed. Virtual ticket holders will be able to view the event one week after the concert. More details here.
