Baroque & Beyond: Violin and Organ

Baroque & Beyond: Violin and Organ

Saturday, February 22, 2026 at 3:30 PM | Bel Air Church

The Vicente Chamber Orchestra presents an afternoon exploring the brilliance of the Baroque and its lasting influence on later composers.

Violinist Ken Aiso takes center stage for Bach's beloved Violin Concerti—works that remain touchstones of the repertoire for their perfect balance of virtuosity and emotional depth. The program also features Ottorino Respighi's Suite for Organ and Strings in G Major, with organist Nancy Ruczynski. Composed in 1905, this suite pays loving tribute to the Baroque masters while filtering their language through Respighi's own colorful sensibility.

Set within the resonant acoustics of Bel Air Church, this concert offers a rare opportunity to hear these works in the kind of intimate, reverberant space for which they were conceived.
