About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Aldomaro Romero - Suite para Cuerdos (1977)

Vivaldi - Concerto for Two Violins in C major RV 507

Andrea Gajic & Emma Baird - violins

John Adams - Shaker Loops (1983)

One of the great Latin American dance musicians, Romero fuses his love of Bach with Venezuelan folk music and Chilean children's songs in this Suite for Strings.

Vivaldi's Concerto for Two Violins in C major RV507 sparkles at the heart of our evening, performed by Head of Strings at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Professor Andrea Gajic and her student, Emma Baird.

John Adams' iconic Shaker Loops takes forms of praise found in American Shaker communities, literally shaking, and crafts his breakthrough work, Shaker Loops, with pioneering Californian minimalism.

THE GLASGOW BARONS

Set up by local conductor Paul MacAlindin, our goal is for everyone to enjoy making and listening to live music in Govan. We do this with concerts, community and school music projects in Govan.

We love celebrating Govan's rich heritage and folklore, but most of all, our local Govanites, whose warmth, colour and resilience influence everything we do. We are a flexible, innovative 21st century orchestral ensemble adapting to the needs of our local groups and spaces. We work alongside other agencies to help everyone celebrate Govan through music.
