Composers of the Occident gladly soaked up the sounds of the near Orient, adding extra spice and depth of flavor to their musical concoctions. A program that looks at those Eastern traditions influencing a wide swathe of Europe in a potpourri of Baroque and 20th-century music. Works by Lully, Rameau, Ali Ufkî Bey, Biber, Bartók, Kodály, and Vivaldi.
With Elicia Silverstein, Rebecca Nelson, Danilo Bonina, violins; Jenny Stirling, viola; Jennifer Morsches, Timothy Merton, cellos; John McKean, harpsichord
