Trio sonatas for violin and flute with theorbo (a very long-necked lute) and baroque guitar by Johann Sebastian Bach, Archangelo Corelli, Pietro Locatelli, Antoine Dornel and Joseph Bodin de Boismortier will be featured in this virtuoso survey of the great variety of musical styles of 18th century Europe.
