Strudel with Espresso: The Italian Connection, Musica Pacifica at Berkeley Festival Fringe

  • Berkeley Piano Club 2724 Haste Street Berkeley, CA, 94704 United States (map)

Eat your strudel and drink an espresso before (COVID restrictions) you come to join Musica Pacifica in a journey of Italian virtuosity! Italian music was a strong influence throughout much of Europe, and you will experience the delicacies and the caffeinated exuberance of Italy as interpreted by Germanic composers on the other side of the Alps. We will present works by Telemann, Bach, Buxtehude, Vivaldi, Merula, and others.

“Strudel with Espresso:  The Italian Connection”

Judith Linsenberg, recorders; Ingrid Matthews, baroque violin; Alexa Haynes-Pilon, cello and viola da gamba; Charles Sherman, harpsichord
