It's easy to forget that Juilliard performances are some of the best deals in New York. Here you have the great conservatory's period-instruments ensemble — as good as any in the country — with a really solid guest conductor, Richard Egarr, playing exactly the music that Egarr does best: English High Baroque orchestral music by Handel and Avison. You really can't go wrong with this.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: A concert this nice deserves a nice dinner: longtime Upper West Side French standby La Boite en Bois.
