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.

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.

On various recorders, Oberlinger and the Bremer Barockorchester demonstrate the unimaginable possibilities in this instrument. Program: […]
