    Hello and Happy Holidays!

    Please join me for a spirited and laid-back evening of carols and wintry classical tunes on harpsichord, including a brilliant, historical arrangement of Arcangelo Corelli's "Christmas Concerto," music by J.S. Bach, and rarely-heard liturgical music by the Jewish-Italian composer Salamone Rossi.

    All of the music will be performed on a replica inspired by a 17th-century Flemish harpsichord.

    What's the music?

    Jonathan Salamon

    Traditional British Carols with Improvisations
    Salamone Rossi: Psalm 124 (Renaissance Hebrew music)
    J.S. Bach: Preludes & Fugues in C minor, A flat major (WTC I)
    Arcangelo Corelli: "Christmas" Concerto, Op. 6. No. 8 (arr. Billington)
