We took a Monday off work to enjoy a lunchtime concert at the V&A, then meander around that space and then go to the evening Prom at the Royal Albert hall.

This was the lunchtime concert:

  • Francesco Gasparini – Quanto sei penosa
  • Arcangelo Corelli – 12 Trio Sonatas, Op 1 No. 9 in G major
  • Innocenzo Fede – Bellezze voi siete
  • Innocenzo Fede – Sei pur dolce
  • Innocenzo Fede – Violin Sonata in D minor
  • Alessandro Scarlatti – Correa nel seno amato

London Baroque was the chamber orchestra, with Charles Medlam leading and Catherine Bott beautifully belting the soprano bits.

Nice. Here is a link to the BBC stub for this concert.

To be clear we really enjoyed the concert and indeed our whole day.
