In this exciting and varied program, outstanding specialists will introduce the audience to several early keyboard instruments, including the fortepiano, harpsichord and square piano. Mandolin virtuoso Alon Sariel and guitar extraordinaire Izhar Elias will join the performing forces. Repertoire will include works from the Baroque to our days. To celebrate Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach Bach’s 300th birthday, the first composition in the program will be the festive Hamburger Sonata, in honor of this great master of the heydays of Baroque music.
