Trace the remarkable journey of Queen Christina of Sweden, from her reign and abdication to her conversion to Catholicism and her influential role as a leading patron of the arts in Baroque Rome. This program follows the wide scope of Christina’s musical patronage—from French works by Lully and trio sonatas by Buxtehude during her early years in Sweden, to compositions by Roman masters she supported, including Alessandro Scarlatti, Giacomo Carissimi, and Arcangelo Corelli.
