Concerto Cologne
Mo | Tu | We | Th | Fr | Sa | Su |
Heroic female figures come to life in arias and orchestral works performed by soprano Jeanine De Bique from Trinidad and Concerto Köln in the Great Hall. The basis for this performance is the singer's debut album, Mirrors, which revels in the full range of Baroque opera emotions, from "fury to goosebumps, from breathtaking coloraturas to sensually beautiful simple melodies."
