Ensemble Caprice (CANADA)
Saturday, March 14, 2026, 1930 - 2100
Back by popular demand, Ensemble Caprice, under the direction of dynamic Artistic Director Matthias Maute, returns to Victoria.
A whirlwind of fiery passion and dazzling virtuosity, Vivaldi on Fire sets the stage ablaze with music by Antonio Vivaldi and vibrant, anonymous works from the Eastern European Uhrovska zbierka collection (1730).
Ensemble Caprice’s signature energy brings to life Vivaldi’s double recorder concerto RV 535 and the dramatic motet In furore iustissimae irae, showcasing both instrumental brilliance and vocal intensity. The beloved La Follia sonata radiates wild invention, while rarely heard cantatas offer moments of intimacy and elegance. Interwoven throughout the program, spirited dances and preludes from the Uhrovska zbierka evoke a nomadic soundscape-raw, rhythmic, and irresistible. This unique dialogue between Baroque Italy and the folk traditions of Eastern Europe invites listeners into a musical journey of contrasts and connections, where refinement meets rustic fire.
