Crème de la Crème: 40th Anniversary Fireworks

To celebrate our 40th year presenting the Vivaldi by Candlelight fundraising concert, Utah Council for Citizen Diplomacy is bringing you the crème de la crème of the Baroque Era. This year's program features masterpieces by arguably the four greatest composers of their era - Antonio Vivaldi, Johann Sebastian Bach, Arcangelo Corelli, and George Frideric Handel - while reflecting UCCD's mission of fostering respect and understanding among all people in the world.

Our concert grand finale, Handels Music for the Royal Fireworks, was commissioned by King George II to celebrate the signing of the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapel in 1748, bringing an end to the War of the Austrian Succession and restoring peace to Europe. An estimated audience of 12,000 attended the outdoor premiere, at which a massive fireworks display followed the performance. Though the fireworks were a disaster, the music became an immediate favorite that continues to this day.

The Vivaldi by Candlelight concerts fireworks will be exclusively musical, with an expanded Baroque orchestra of strings, winds, brass, timpani, and a guitarlike instrument you may never have heard of, the theorbo. Set to candlelit ambiance and with a message of peace and universal friendship, we cordially invite you to share our message.

Vivaldi by Candlelight is a signature fundraising gala of the Utah Council for Citizen Diplomacy and directly supports our programs and mission. A portion of your ticket price is tax-deductible.
