Event Description
The much-sought-after Canadian violinist Julia Wedman leads Victoria Baroque in a journey of exquisite, imaginative, and unique Baroque works. She takes listeners through riveting musical depictions of soldiers on the battlefield, the humorous consequences of feasting on too many beans, dance-driven and hauntingly beautiful instrumental suites, paired with the mesmerising and thought-provoking recent work "White Man's Cattle" by Indigenous composer Cris Derksen.
"Her performance exude humanity... Both Biber's music and Wedman's performances are inspirational." - Gramophone 2011
