Early Music and Elegant Food

While most baroque musicians were servants of the church or aristocracy, those with the greatest musical and social skill might be invited to compose and perform for private concerts or domestic events. Relax in a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere while reveling in music by Jean-Baptiste Lully, George Frederic Handel, and other assorted works written for the bedrooms of history.

Musical servants:
Victoria Fraser, soprano
Laura Koenig, baroque flute
Dawn Lindsay, baroque violin
Linda Ottum, cello
Juliana Osinchuk, harpsichord

Victoria Fraser is an Alaska-born soprano currently living in Ireland. As an early music specialist, she has performed around the world from the Oregon Bach Festival and Audivi in Detroit, Michigan to the Bachkantaten-Akademie choir in Thuringia, Germany. This concert is a rare chance to hear her perform in her home state.

A Baroque Slumber Party is presented by Anchorage Festival of Music.
