Powerful chords and dramatic tension punctuate the classical music program from the internationally renowned Venice Baroque Orchestra. Traversing the globe since 1997, the ensemble is recognized as one of the premier purveyors of period instrument performances (say it five times fast). A wide variety of strings and woodwinds carry works by Geminiani, Veracini, and Vivaldi to great heights in this installment of the Tuesday Evening Concert Series.
Tuesday 2/18. Free, 8pm. Old Cabell Hall, UVA. 924-3376.
