A Circle of Her Own

Step into the vibrant world of 18th-century Vienna through the music of a contemporary of Haydn and Mozart, Marianne Martinez, a celebrated composer, keyboardist, and salonnière. At the center of this program is a modern premiere of the newly discovered Keyboard Concerto  in E major and the vivid La Tempesta, works that reflect her command of both elegance and drama.

​

Also featured are works by Mozart and CPE Bach, music that captures the intimate musical culture that flourished in Martinez’ salon—where Haydn, Metastasio, and even Mozart were regular guests.
