Diminutions passingthrough all the voices, greatdiversity of timbres by thedifferent combinations of theseinstruments and emotionsranging from melancholy toamazing highs!QUE DE PLAISIRS —CHANSONS SANS PAROLELambert, Bousset, Lully & othersDoubles by Hotteterre & Cord-to-Krax————————————Playing vocal music instrumentally is usuallyassociated to the Renaissance period.Nevertheless, it was still practiced inBaroque times as we can see, for example,from Hotteterre’s collection Airs etbrunettes (ca. 1721): compositions bydifferent authors with their doubles by theflutist. In this program we play a selection ofbeautiful songs, (trios, duos & solos)following Hotteterre’s example ofembellishing the songs with doubles,creating a quite different atmospherewithin French baroque music.
ELOQUENCE WITHOUT WORDSFacettes of european baroque music 1610-1750Palestrina & Rognoni | Locke | Cima | Fontana | Hotteterre | Bach————————————Articulation, affetti, silence, rhythm,emotion and reflection are some of theworking tools and virtues both of a goodstoryteller and a good melodyteller. But,unlike the first one, music does notalways need words, for ‘music does notexpress this or that particular and definitepleasure, this or that affliction, pain sorrow,horror, gaiety, merriment or peace of mind,but joy, pain, sorrow, horror, gaiety,merriment, peace of mind themselves, to acertain extent in the abstract, their essentialnature, without any accessories, and so alsowithout the motives for them’ –A. SchopenhauerPETIT CONCERT DE CHAMBRECouperin, Hotteterre & Marais————————————A friend once said, that if one wouldhave to attribute a color to Frenchbaroque music – it would be a darkred: at a time delicate and strong,elegant, clearly distinguishable fromother baroque styles for itscharacteristic ornamentation, its richharmonies, melodic basslines, itsspecial way of developing melody…In this program we present threecomposer who have left a widetestimony of their real mastery in themusic of their time.
