Whidbey Island Music Festival- The Siren’s Call: Venetian Baroque and the Sea

  • Nordic Hall 63 Jacobs Road Coupeville, WA, 98239 United States (map)

Join the Whidbey Island Music Festival for an enchanting evening of Venetian Baroque music, where the timeless allure of the sea takes center stage. From the tempestuous fury of Vivaldi’s concertos, evoking crashing waves and stormy skies, to the sensuous and romantic melodies of gondola songs, this concert captures the beating heart of Venice's maritime soul.

Just as Venice's history is inextricably linked to its lagoon, Whidbey Island's spirit is shaped by its coastline. You’ll experience the maritime heritage of Venice through the exquisite artistry of Baroque masters, and celebrate the eternal connection between Venice and the sea.

From Campra’s Carnaval de Venise, Vivaldi and Torelli’s exquisite concertos, arias by Hasse and popular gondola songs from the 18th century, this is a trip to Venice you can make all in one afternoon!
