The elegance of George Frideric Handel’s Trio Sonata in C minor begins this hour-long voyage, featuring internationally renowned baroque oboist, Emma Black. Then follows Buxtehude’s sublimely simple vocal chaconne, Herr, wenn ich nur Dich hab, a joyous ode to divine love and comfort, followed by J.S. Bach’s Weichet nur, betrübte Schatten, written for the celebration of a marriage. The performance comes to a spellbinding end with Henry Purcell’s exquisitely serene sacred song, An Evening Hymn.
