Brandenburg Celebrates

After a quarter-century of operation, this Australian period-instrument orchestra deserves a little self-commemoration. Kicking things off with Handel’s Coronation Anthem No. 1, artistic director (and ensemble cofounder) Paul Dyer constructs a program designed to let his players exult. From there, the group charts a path through other Baroque highlights, including Telemann’s Concerto in E Minor for Flute, Violin and Strings—check out the fireworks during the “Presto”—before closing with a two-movement piece by contemporary Australian composer Elena Kats-Chernin.
