A concert featuring the sonorous alto and tenor registers of the unusual Viola d'amore and the black sheep of the string family, the Viola. Highlights include music depicting a Phoenix and a Chicken, a duo for the 28 strings of two Viola d'amores, a concerto for 4 violas stolen from our diva violin cousins, and a melancholy setting by the most famous composer of all time, Anonymous. Music featuring Viola d’amore and Violas by Telemann, Graupner, Rameau, Huberty, and Anonymous.
