“Le Tre Stagioni” (“The Three Seasons”) featured a collection of works by George Frideric Handel woven together into a single story. The accompanying orchestra used period instruments such as the harpsichord, transverse flute and baroque era string instruments as well as experimenting with playing techniques from the baroque period, such as tuning instruments at lower pitches, using different bows and special ways of accompaniment to reproduce original performances of famous operas.
