The Critic's Chair for 22 September 2013
This week on The Critic's Chair, Peter Walls follows the great 18th-century mezzo-soprano Faustina Bordoni's travels around Naples, and reviews Bach's violin concerti performed by the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra. He also explores the much-neglected Seven Last Words of Christ by Pergolesi, and the sacred choral music of Marc-Antoine Charpentier.
