THE ALCHEMICAL VIOLIN: WORKS BY MUFFAT,
VERACINI, J. S. BACH, C. P. E. BACH, AND PISENDEL
Trio Settecento, headlined by violin virtuosa Rachel
Barton Pine, performs a program exploring the
violin as a vehicle of metamorphosis. The music this
instrument produces transforms listeners, and
skilled players are themselves transformed by long
periods of study, travel, or by bargaining with the
devil. Hear masterpieces by violinist composers
associated with Germanic court cities famous for
their alchemical cultures, namely Prague (Muffat)
and Dresden (J. S. Bach, Pisendel, and Veracini).
