Riccardo Minasi Conducts Bach

Riccardo Minasi leads a program that includes Bach’s Concerto for Two Violins in D minor, a work notable for its rhythmic energy, clear formal design, and closely woven string writing. Its animated opening and closing movements frame a slower middle movement of greater lyricism. Minasi is known for his work in historically informed performance and serves as Principal Guest Conductor of Ensemble Resonanz and Artistic Director of Orchestra La Scintilla at the Zurich Opera House. His style is well suited to music that relies on clarity of texture and rhythmic precision.
