Die Alpen-Con­nec­tion

In this con­cert, the Bre­men Baro­que Orches­tra pres­ents a par­ti­cu­lar­ly exci­ting chap­ter in music histo­ry, name­ly music by Hein­rich Ignaz Franz Biber, who came from Bohe­mia, and his con­tem­po­r­a­ri­es. North of the Alps, the vio­lin vir­tuo­so was lar­ge­ly respon­si­ble for the fur­ther deve­lo­p­ment of play­ing tech­ni­que on the vio­lin and also for the evo­lu­ti­on of various musi­cal gen­res such as the solo and trio sona­ta; It’s time to take a clo­ser look at this baro­que geni­us. Based on his impres­si­ve cham­ber music coll­ec­tion “Har­mo­nia Arti­fi­ci­o­sa Ario­sa”, which Biber published in 1696, the orches­tra places his music in the con­text of various orches­tral and solo com­po­si­ti­ons from the nati­ons around the Alps. Both the tra­di­ti­on of the gre­at Johann Schmel­zer and the influen­ces of the Roman mas­ter Arc­an­ge­lo Corel­li play an important role in this con­cert and show the mas­ter­ly art of com­po­si­ti­on at the end of the 17th cen­tu­ry, in […]

Il Maestro di Capella

Il Maes­tro di Capel­la

The Bre­mer Barock­or­ches­ter pres­ents a pro­gram based on the work Il Maes­tro di Capel­la by Dome­ni­co Cima­ro­sa (1749-1801), which focu­ses enti­re­ly on the capri­ces and dra­ma­tic move­ment of the music from the second half of the 18th cen­tu­ry. The midd­le of this con­cert show­ca­ses an inter­mez­zo with a full orches­tra and a sin­ger. The audi­ence expe­ri­en­ces an orches­tral rehear­sal in which a con­duc­tor tri­es to make the indi­vi­du­al groups of instru­ments sound accor­ding to his wis­hes. The result doesn’t always seem to satis­fy him. The Nea­po­li­tan Cima­ro­sa uses this attempt of a rehear­sal as an extre­me­ly enter­tai­ning musi­cal encoun­ter, which at the same time could be view­ed as a fine­ly craf­ted and fun­ny orches­tral per­for­mance. In addi­ti­on to this staged Ita­li­an work, music by C. W. Gluck, one of the most famous ope­ra com­po­sers of his time, is per­for­med, as well as a redis­co­very that is pro­ba­b­ly less known to […]

Typisch Barock

Typi­cal Baro­que!?

The year 2021 and the seventh sea­son of the con­cert series Baro­que & umzu beg­ins with the ques­ti­on: What actual­ly is Baro­que? The title of the pro­gram “Typisch Barock!?” plays with the many pos­si­ble ans­wers to this ques­ti­on and the sub­con­scious expec­ta­ti­ons. The Bre­mer Barock­or­ches­ter ans­wers: diver­si­ty and emo­ti­on. The focus of the Febru­ary con­cert is on the Recor­der and the Vio­la da Gam­ba, two genui­ne baro­que instru­ments that are com­ple­te­ly absent from the modern orches­tra. The warm sound no lon­ger sui­ted the sound con­cep­ti­ons of the fol­lo­wing era, in which the asser­ti­ve­ness of the instru­ments in the gro­wing sym­pho­ny orches­tra beca­me more and more important. In the Baro­que era, howe­ver, the­se two instru­ments were favo­ri­tes of many com­po­sers, pro­fes­sio­nal musi­ci­ans and the ama­teurs at home. For exam­p­le, G.P. Tele­mann mas­terful­ly uses them in his Con­cer­to for Recor­der and Vio­la da Gam­ba in A minor. What is asto­nis­hing about this […]

Hohes Holz

High wood

We are final­ly back on stage! In the fourth con­cert of 2020, the con­di­ti­ons have chan­ged (the con­cert will take place wit­hout a break and the pro­gram will be slight­ly shor­ten­ed), but we are very plea­sed that, even under the dif­fi­cult con­di­ti­ons and on a small sca­le, we will be allo­wed to play for you all again. We look for­ward to working with Alfre­do Ber­nar­di­ni, one of the most well-known inter­na­tio­nal baro­que obo­ists of our time, who will take on the musi­cal direc­tion of this pro­ject. Under the title “Hohes Holz” (after the French name of the instru­ment “Haut-bois”, a wood­wind instru­ment that sounds in the high regis­ter) we go on a jour­ney of dis­co­very into the par­ti­al­ly still unknown sphe­res of vir­tuo­so baro­que oboe music. Pro­gram: Fran­ces­co Maria Ver­a­ci­ni (1690-1768) Over­tu­re No. 1 in B flat major Gio­van­ni Bene­det­to Plat­ti (1697-1763) Con­cer­to for Oboe in G minor Eva­ris­to Dall’Abaco […]

Der stürmende Äolus

The stor­ming Aeo­lus

For the first time, the renow­ned recor­der play­er Doro­thee Ober­lin­ger is a guest with the Bre­mer Barock­or­ches­ter. The 2020 Con­cert Series “Barock & Umzu” opens with an unu­su­al pro­gram that includes both late baro­que music, such as the famous flu­te con­cert “La Not­te” by Anto­nio Vival­di, and works by G.Ph. Tele­mann, as well as music from the 16th Cen­tu­ry. Tog­e­ther, the soloist and ensem­ble explo­re the world of baro­que flu­te music pre­sen­ting works from all over Euro­pe that seem to con­ti­nu­al­ly sur­pass each other in vir­tuo­si­ty, but also skillful­ly show­ca­se the can­ta­bi­le cha­rac­ter of the recor­der. Pro­fes­sor Doro­thee Ober­lin­ger is inter­na­tio­nal­ly known for her lively play­ing at the hig­hest tech­ni­cal level, which repea­ted­ly enti­ces storms of enthu­si­asm among baro­que music lovers and espe­ci­al­ly among lis­ten­ers who pre­vious­ly knew the recor­der from their school years. On various recor­ders, Ober­lin­ger and the Bre­mer Barock­or­ches­ter demons­tra­te the uni­ma­gi­nable pos­si­bi­li­ties in this instru­ment. Pro­gram: […]
