200 Beth and Liv full size 5Beth Wenstrom, Baroque Violin
Liv Heym, Baroque Violin

From the simple elegance of early French duets to the rich harmony of 18th century Austrian sonatas for violin and viola, the variety of soundscapes in this intimate setting is surprising. The ear is kept under the illusion that a bass line is actually present, for no music would be complete without it - or would it? Music by Montéclair, Leclair, Kreutzer and Rolla.

Midtown Concerts sponsors lunchtime performances of music of the 18th century and earlier. Ensembles are chosen by a panel of early music specialists from the metropolitan area.

Time: Thursdays, 1:15–2:00 pm
All concerts are free; no tickets or reservations are necessary.

Concerts are in person at St. Malachy's Church, 239 West 49th Street, Manhattan, AND live streamed.
