Combattimento: Handel's London

Tickets

Stadsherstel Cultuuragenda (Amstelkerk, De Duif e.a.)

A concert featuring music by Handel and his principal contemporaries from 18th-century London. Shortly after his arrival in London in 1711, Georg Friedrich Handel secured a top position in English musical life, which is not surprising given the steady stream of masterpieces that flowed from his pen: operas, oratorios, concertos, sonatas, etc.; moreover, he was an unmatched musician. This more than forty-year dazzling star, however, has overshadowed many other fascinating figures who collaborated or competed with him in London. They too have composed beautiful music. Handel’s music was always the reference point, both for native composers like Avison and Pepusch, as well as for several famous foreigners who enjoyed a significant part of their careers in London: Ariosti, Porpora, Bononcini, and Fesch. Attilio Ariosti (1666-1729) Overture “Vespesian” (1724) Willem de Fesch (1687-1761) Concerto for strings in B-flat major, op. 10/2 Charles Avison (1709-1770) Trio sonata in g minor, op. 1/3 Johann Christoph Pepusch (1667-1752) Chaconne in C major Georg Friedrich Handel (1685-1759) Suite “Il Pastor Fido” HWV 8 (1716) —— Giovanni Bononcini (1670-1747) Overture “Astarte” (1720) Nicola Porpora (1686-1768) Cello concerto in G major Georg Friedrich Handel (1685-1759) Concerto with oboe in B-flat major, HWV 302 Musicians: Cynthia Freivogel – violin, Quirine van Hoek – violin Marjolein Dispa – viola, Diederik van Dijk – cello Erik Olsman – double bass, Sören Leupold – chitarrone Pieter Dirksen – harpsichord, Bram Kreeftmeijer – oboe
