French king Louis XIV staged his absolute power not only in magnificent architecture but also in dance: in 1653, dressed as the sun god Apollo, he embodied the rising sun at the centre of the planetary system. He continued to perform regularly as a dancer until 1670.

The most important composer at court was Jean-Baptiste Lully, who created the style of French music entirely characterised by dance.

In the court of Louis XIV in France, music played an important role. Glorious operas and magnificent outdoor orchestras demonstrated the king's power, as well as his refined taste and high level of skill in music. Besides these grand spectacles, there were also smaller chamber music ensembles, such as the one playing in this concert.

The pieces in our programme were published after the death of Louis XIV (1715), but the style of his era still resonates in the music, with many dance-oriented movements. We perform a ‘Suite’, a ‘Ballet’, a ‘Concert’ and a ‘Sonata’, and these all include dances such as the Allemande, the Gigue or the Sarabande.

Originally performed to accompany dancers, these pieces of music evolved over time into purely instrumental compositions to listen to and enjoy.

We cordially invite you to this unique and intimate salon concert, where you can enjoy the interwoven musical conversation - perhaps not too loud, but eloquent and colourful - between two traversos and a theorbo.

Double Espresso

In "Double Espresso", Musica Poetica treats you to Bach's coffee cantata (Schweigt stille, plaudert nicht, BWV 211) and its French counterpart Le Caffé by Nicolas Bernier in one programme-a double espresso, that is. Both works originated during the time of the great boom of coffee houses opening all over Europe. At least Bach's cantata was therefore performed in the Kaffehaus Zimmermann where Bach regularly organised performances. Since Bach's piece about Liesgen, the coffee-addicted daughter of Mr Schlendrian of Leipzig, is among the love pieces of today's audiences, we offer coffee lovers an entirely new flavour direction with Bernier's typically French Caffé.

The performance is complemented by dances (such as the specially composed Chaconne for Coffee Addicts) and entertaining anecdotes from the time of Europe's first coffee houses. (In England, for example, a movement of women against serving coffee arose in the second half of the 17th century, but more on that in the performance).

We look forward to hearing what you think.

During this afternoon concert we will play:

Herman Beefting “Spring” for flute and piano
Jules Massenet “Meditation”
Francios Borne/Bizet Fantasie Brilliant on Themes from opera Carmen
Valery Gavrilin “Vals" and “Galop” from suite “Anyuta” transcription for piano four hands

Paradise Lost

In 1658, the blind John Milton began dictating to his daughters and friends a poem that would become a reference for poets and writers for the next two centuries. Paradise Lost recounts the epic deeds of the fallen angel Lucifer, whose pride and envy cause the fall of man and the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden. The poem was the basis for several compositions, such as Haydn's Schöpfung.

In this programme, recited excerpts alternate with settings of Milton's poem by composers such as Johann Ernst Galliard, John Christopher Smith and others, commemorating the 350th anniversary of John Milton's death.

A musical afternoon with the Bach family

It is well known that the great Bach family met regularly to make music in larger and smaller family circles. 

This morning, we will give you an insight into what a musical afternoon at the Bachs' house might have looked or sounded like. The focus will be on the second orchestral suite in B minor for flute, strings and continuo (BWV 1067). It is not certain exactly when it was composed. Bach is said to have performed it around 1740 at the Zimmermann coffee house in Leipzig, among other places, but the work will be older.

Contemporary research suspects an earlier version in a minor. There are good reasons to believe that the first version was written only for strings; the solo Bourrée II was probably not in it then, and the remarkably few other solo passages were probably entrusted to the first violin.

The suite is ideally suited to a chamber music performance and contains some contrapuntal subtleties. The final movement of the overture, for instance, is an implied multiple canon of all voices. In several movements, there are canons between the upper voice and the bass; in the Sarabande, there is even a strict fifths canon.

You will also hear the Sonata in G for violin and continuo (BWV 1021), excerpts from the Sonata in g minor for violin without bass (BWV 1001) and the first Cello Suite (BWV 1007), and a Sonata for violoncello and harpsichord by Bach's son Johann Christoph Friedrich, who spent most of his career at the court in Bückeburg.

Since coffee is, of course, not to be missed, we invite you to enjoy it during the concert.

Experience a heartfelt piece of Commedia del'Arte full of slapstick in which the relationship problems of a drunken bass player and his wife are brought to heel. The two let sparks fly, only to end up united in each other's arms.

The music is by Joseph Haydn's brother Michael, who played with Mozart and his father in the Salzburg court orchestra.

Incidentally, Leopold Mozart complained about his often drunken fellow musicians. So it may well be that Michael Haydn's work also contains autobiographical references.
