A Baroque Feast: Lucinda Carver, Elizabeth Blumenstock & Friends

Lucinda Carver is a harpsichordist, music historian, and scholar of the music of the Baroque. She has assembled some of the finest Baroque musicians in the U.S. for this special performance, featuring Bach’s magnificent Brandenburg Concerto No. 5. Carver is the artistic director for the Centrum Chamber Music Series and Workshop.

Elizabeth Blumenstock plays a 1660 Andrea Guarneri violin built in Cremona, Italy, on generous loan to her from the Philharmonia Baroque Period Instrument Trust. She is a concertmaster, leader, and soloist with the San Francisco Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra and American Bach Soloists, and concertmaster of the International Handel Festival in Göttingen, Germany.  In Southern California, Blumenstock is Artistic Director of the Corona del Mar Baroque Music Festival.  An enthusiastic teacher, Blumenstock teaches for the Juilliard Historical Performance program, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, the American Bach Soloists Festival and Academy, the International Baroque Institute at Longy, and the Valley of the Moon Music Festival.
