Baroque's magical mystery tour 

Introducing Lina Tur Bonet, fearless violinist and musical imaginista, and leader of Musica Alchemica, her hand-picked ensemble of Europe's finest baroque experts. Join them for a magical mystery tour of Corelli, Telemann, Biber and other jewels of the Baroque.

Introducing Lina Tur Bonet, a fearless musical imaginista, and her crack team of period-instrument professionals.

Regarded as one of the most exciting violinists of her generation, Tur Bonet has delighted and fascinated fans across Europe with her performances of repertoire ranging from Bach to Messiaen. Now she makes her Australian debut with Musica Alchemica, her hand-picked ensemble who bring honesty and joyful sense of discovery to these works by Corelli, Telemann, Biber and other jewels of the Baroque.

"Bonet and her musicians capture it all: the lightness and gravity, the wit and the seriousness, the ardency and the soul. "
— Gramophone
"Lina Tur Bonet – the Kate Bush of early music – is a ferociously good player, but there is additionally a wonderful lustre to her presentation of works she inhabits so singularly and convincingly. "
— Paul Kildea
