About this show

Peter Whelan leads a program anchored in Vivaldi’s propulsive string writing, paired with a newly commissioned concerto by Philharmonia composer-in-residence Tarik O’Regan. Vivaldi’s overture to L’Olimpiade and concertos from L’Estro armonico—works built on rhythm, contrast, and forward motion— helped define the Baroque concerto. O’Regan’s concerto, receiving its world premiere, features acclaimed oud soloist Joseph Tawadros and places the oud—an ancient plucked instrument central to Middle Eastern musical traditions—in a solo role more often occupied by violin or cello, set against the string orchestra.
