Chase away the winter weather with a musical trip to the sun drenched piazzas of eighteenth-century Venice. Join the Early Opera Company on a trip to the Ospedale della Pieta, where orphaned girls were taught to sing and play like angels by no less than Antonio Vivaldi, who dedicated 30 years of his life to this astounding institution. The concert combines dazzling concertos with virtuoso arias and culminates with Vivaldi’s most popular choral work, the Gloria.
