Grand Finale: Viva Vivaldi IV
Viva Vivaldi IV with Grammy winning soprano Estelí Gomez, Joanna Blendulf (baroque cello), Kathryn Montoya (baroque oboe), Hán Xiè (baroque violin), and the Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra

Our grand finale is the fourth installment of Viva Vivaldi and will feature concertos for baroque cello, baroque oboe, baroque violin, and voice.

Joanna Blendulf is the recently appointed baroque cello professor at Indiana Universitys Jacobs School of Music. Kathryn Montoya has performed with Boston Early Music Festival Orchestra, the Cleveland Orchestra, Tafelmusik, the Wiener Akademie, Portland Baroque Orchestra, and Apollos Fire. Hán Xiè is first violinist with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. Grammy winning soprano Estelí Gomez will sing opera arias of the great and frequently underrated Vivaldi.

.Listen to the way the solo soprano voice floats in out of her section, crescendos through the lower note, then decrescendos upward as she plucks the high C-flat out of the air.
