B'Rock Orchestra revives forgotten baroque composers under Evgeny Sviridov.
B'Rock Orchestra sheds fresh light on the rococo music of the early 18th century. For example, you will hear how the bassoon, then greatly improved, shines as a solo instrument. You will also discover music by composers who have almost been forgotten these days, such as the Dutch Willem de Fesch, the Fleming Henri-Jacques de Croes and the Czech František Jiránek - probably a pupil of Antonio Vivaldi. Conducted by concertmaster Evgeny Sviridov, who also performs the solo part in De Croes' violin concertos, the transition from the Baroque period to the early classical era comes to life and these composers are given their rightful place alongside the work of greats such as Arcangelo Corelli and Georg Friedrich Handel.
