Winds Frolic – January 18, Bourgie Hall LiveEvents January 11, 2018 2216 Winds Frolic In countless solo sonatas from the 18th century, wind instruments vied with ingenuity and temerity to compete with the violin, in reverie or clever, caprice. The trio sonata was the Baroque musical genre by excellence in which instruments could converse in dialogue, in play, or in malicious attempts to trap one another! Artists Vincent Lauzer, flute Mathieu Lussier, bassoon Amanda Keesmaat, cello Sylvain Bergeron, lute Mélisande McNabney, harpsichord Program Sonatas by BOISMORTIER, FASCH, TELEMANN, and VIVALDI Hour-long concert with commentary, no intermission.
