Baroque Tarantella

If you see this
you know it means I've been to a show.  And what a show!!  I saw Baroque Tarantella with the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra and members of L'Arpeggiata from Paris.
Wow.  Energetic, interesting and beautiful short pieces played and sung with verve and style. Take regular original instruments such as the theorbo and harpsichord, add some jazz clarinet and a wild theatrical dancer and you have a showstopper.  My ticketed seat was here
but as there were lots of spare seats I sneaked up all the way to the second row!
