Eighteenth-Century Arias for two Eighteenth-Century Divas with Tempesta di Mare Monday Night

Andrew Kahl/Andrew Kahl / Wonderful Machine

This concert broadcast Monday (10/27) features music written for two 18th-century divas.

The Philadelphia-based Baroque orchestra performs works written for Faustina Bondini - born into wealth and privilege - and Santina Tasca, who was abandoned and raised in the Venetian Ospedali orphanage - who were the superstars of their day. Soloists will be Gabriela Estephanie Solís and Meg Bragle. Tempesta di Mare co-founders and artistic directors, Gwyn Robert’s and Richard Stone, join David Osenberg as co-hosts.

There will be an encore broadcast Saturday (11/1) at 2pm.

David Osenberg is WWFM Partnership Manager, WWFM Music Director, Afternoon Host, and Host of award-winning Cadenza.
