see the full programm
Works by: Ennemond Gaultier, William Lawes, Francois
Dufault, Adam Falckenhagen, Joachim Bernhard Hagen, Marin Marais.
During the past few decades there has been an enormous increase of
interest in early music and historical performance. From music by
accepted masters such as Bach or Rameau to works by such forgotten
figures as Franz Xaver Richter or Jan Dismas Zelenka the sudden surge of
interest has lead to an unbridled period of rediscovery and
reevaluation. It is in this climate of reawakening that the lute and its
music has begun to be appreciated.The aim of this programm is to attract
attention to the long neglected repertoire for the Baroque lute duo and
to help shed light upon music which was written during the final
twilight hours of the lute's bright history. Performed on two 13 course
Baroque lutes, exact copies of the istruments of the time.
