Choral Concert: Vivaldi and Venice

The choir will be accompanied by the New Sagittarius Consort Zurich, whose baroque instruments provide just the right sound. Cast: Choir, New Sagittarius Consort Zurich (baroque instruments), conducted by Alexander Seidel & Andreas Westermann. Admission free; collection.
