The Oxford Philharmonic returns to St Martin-in-the-Fields for music gleaming and glinting with baroque splendour. The Orchestra’s Solo Horn Radek Baborák leads the Orchestra in some of Handel’s most stately ceremonial works – including both his Water and Fireworks music – and exquisite works by Telemann and Bach.

This February concert at the Bethlehem Chapel brings together Italian and German Baroque music. The programme opens with the Concerto in G major “Alla rustica”, a short two-movement work written by Antonio Vivaldi around 1730. It is among his most original concertos for strings, notable for its unusual form and striking rhythmic energy.
