In this episode, we explore the Violin Concerto in B-Flat Major by Regina Strinasacchi (c. 1761-1839).
The McGill Baroque Orchestra, co-led by Hank Knox and Dorian Bandy are set to perform the modern-day premiere of the concerto thanks to research and preparation done by Schulich musicology PhD candidate Hester Bell Jordan.
Guests this episode are Dorian Bandy and Hester Bell Jordan along with the three Schulich violinists playing the concerto with orchestra — Gracie Carney, Jeanel Liang, and Etienne Pemberton-Renaud.
