**Program Highlights:**

- **Artistic Advisor and Curator Chloe Fedor:** Chloe Fedor will perform Vivaldi’s violin concerto *La Tempesta di Mare*, depicting a storm at sea.
- **Baroque Ensemble:** The concert features a small Baroque band including three violinists, viola, cello, string bass, harpsichord, and theorbo.

**Additional Information:**
- This concert includes music from renowned Baroque composers such as Johann Sebastian Bach, Antonio Vivaldi, George Frideric Handel, and Johann Pachelbel.
- The program will feature several Cantatas, which can be compared to one-woman mini-operas, performed by Nola Richardson.

The ACO returns to the historic Harlem Parish, the stunning location of its fall ’20 filmed production of The Chaconne Project. Now we assemble the same performers to Revisit that experience in this lively program of Baroque repertoire with a focus on the chaconne—a musical genre that evolved from the bawdiness of 16th-century Spanish street dances to the refinement of Bach’s Chaconne for Solo Violin. In the splendid acoustics of Harlem Parish, we showcase ten vibrant chaconnes that use various combinations of strings, plucked instruments, harpsichord, voice and percussion. Acclaimed Mexican lyric soprano Guadalupe Peraza dazzles with her “mellow, conversational” mezzo (Opera News) and emotional delivery, complemented by dance and hand percussion.
