Baroque sounds especially delicate when accompanied by a live string ensemble, harpsichord, flute, and three sopranos who lead the music like a conversation. The program includes Vivaldi with "Alleluia" and pages from "The Four Seasons", Handel, Bach, Scarlatti, and rare finds that are a pleasure to hear for the first time. This is an evening for the whole family and those who love the clear beauty of sound. There is music that immediately tunes the ear to subtle details. Baroque is precisely one of those genres: every turn of the melody, every breath of the phrase, every response of the strings to the voice is important. This style is easily recognizable by its clear rhythm, the play of contrasts, and how the melody seems to engage in dialogue with the musical accompaniment. Even if you don't remember the titles of the compositions, listening is interesting - baroque has a quick character and precise dramaturgy. At the center of the program is Antonio Vivaldi: sparkling "Alleluia" and fragments from "The Four Seasons". Nearby is Georg Friedrich Handel with the aria of Antigone from the opera "Admeto" and episodes from "Rinaldo". This circle will be joined by Johann Sebastian Bach, Domenico Scarlatti, and other authors of the era. The program also includes compositions that are rarely heard in the hall: for the listener, this is a pleasant effect of first acquaintance, without complicated entry tickets to the topic. On stage is the Balakirev String Ensemble, three sopranos, harpsichord, and flute. The soloists are Olga Fomicheva, Elena Sinichkina, and Wan Zhe. The harpsichord is led by Alina Mokhova, and the flute part is performed by Maria Tryanina. This lineup gives baroque a clear relief: the voices maintain the line, the instruments illuminate the harmony, and even familiar themes sound fresh. Especially striking are the moments when the sopranos come to the forefront, and the strings respond with short replies - the music becomes almost theatrical. The venue adds impressions by itself: the Grand Hall of the Rukavishnikov Estate is a grand space with a historical interior. The concert lasts 75 minutes, making the evening light yet rich. This program is good for a calm celebration after the New Year's hustle: the music maintains tone while also providing pure joy of sound.
