Peter Warlock: Capriol Suite

Myroslav Skoryk: Melody

J.S. Bach: Violin Concerto No. 2 In E Major, BWV 1042

Jessie Montgomery: Strum

Edvard Grieg: From Holberg’s Time, Op. 40

Maestro Peter Bay presents Classic Wines in New Bottles, a concert of music inspired by composers and genres from earlier eras. The lilt of Renaissance dances permeates Peter Warlock’s most popular work, Capriol Suite. Violinist Katie McLin solos in J. S. Bach’s Violin Concerto No. 2, which is both modeled upon and breaking with Vivaldi’s concerto form. Strum is an engaging celebration of American folk idioms by acclaimed composer Jesse Montgomery. And Edvard Grieg’s From Holberg’s Time, Op. 40 is grounded in the 18th century contrapuntal style, but with romantic colorations. AZ Phil also honors the people of Ukraine with Ukrainian composer Myroslav Skoryk’s Melody, a beautiful work embraced as a spiritual anthem for the nation.
