For Valentine’s Day, Three Notch'd Road: The Virginia Baroque Ensemble celebrates love in its many forms through early Italian pastoral drama and songs from the British Isles.

Mezzo soprano Kim Leeds and soprano Sheila Dietrich are joined by period instrumentalists in a program of passion-filled laments, transcendent airs, and joyous dances reflecting on love in the Baroque. 

The program, led by historical clarinetist and guest artistic director Dominic Giardino, will include selections from Vivaldi's Juditha triumphans and Handel’s Ode for the Birthday of Queen Anne and works by Antonio Caldara and Henry Purcell.
