Congregational Church Price: $42 Subscription Series: Music Before 1850 Series - Sold Out This sensational Milanese ensemble has skyrocketed to fame by taking an exuberant, contemporary approach to some of the best-known Baroque compositions. First introduced to American audiences at the 1996 Berkeley Festival, Il Giardino performed to tremendous critical acclaim at Cal Performances in 2001 with superstar soprano Cecilia Bartoli, with whom they recorded their Grammy Award-winning Vivaldi Album. Combining virtuosic playing with a daring willingness to improvise, they have been called the most dynamic and creative period-instrument group on today's scene — "the kind of ensemble that makes listeners eager to follow its adventures through the repertory," says The New York Times.
