«Camerata in details» is a vibrant musical program with the participation of artists from the state chamber orchestra «Camerata of Kazakhstan».

The new spring concert program «Camera in Detail» presents another musical experiment.

Continuing the tradition of Baroque music-making that was enjoyed in the February concert, the audience will hear the work of George Frideric Handel, and his unique tradition of form - Concerto Grosso.

In addition to Handel's work, a unique diptych by Johann Pehalbel, a composer of the North German Baroque tradition, was chosen. It is unique that it was this composer that British producer Pete Waterman called «the godfather of pop music». Much attention was paid to the culture of the 20th century by the work of the 17th century - the canon of I. Pachelbel. The full title of which is «Canon and Gigue in D major for violins and basso continuo».

A special pearl of the spring program «Camera in Detail» will be the composition of Grażyna Bacewicz. The name of this Polish violinist and composer is practically unknown in Kazakhstan. While her composer heritage includes dozens of major symphonic opuses, concertos for solo instruments, music for ballets, chamber and vocal works. For the first time in Almaty her quartet for 4 violins will be performed.

The classical music ensemble «Camerata of Kazakhstan» is preparing to surprise and inspire the audience!
