SOLI, DUETTE - UND TANZ...
Musik für Blockflöte - auch aus der Sicht des Tanzes
Soli und Duette aus dem 17. und 18. Jahrhundert - und ausgewählte Werke der Neuen Musik

Musik
Van Eyck's Fluyten Lust-hof „in Bewegung", die Duette Telemanns auf ihren Tanzcharakter, französische Gesten in der Musik auf jene des körperlichen Ausdrucks hin betrachtet - Neue Musik im Raum:

The 24th edition of the concert series Musica & Musica, organized by the Scuola Popolare di Musica di Testaccio, features in its section Suoni Nel Tempo a program of dance music with the Orchestra da Ballo de Il Teatro della Memoria, an ensemble led by Andrea Toschi and specialized in the performance – supported by research on the original arrangements – of the typical Salon Orchestra repertory.

In 1815 on the eve of the battle of Quatre Bras the Duchess of Richmond and the ladies of society Revérence held a grand ball that would be unparalleled history. All the allied commanders, diplomats and dignitaries are present. But are the rumours true? Are the troops summoned to march at sunrise to fight against Napoleon? Before the gentlemen say their last goodbyes, the ladies seize the opportunity to whirl across the ball room floor with their husbands, lovers and brothers once more. Only God knows who will return from the battlefield alive…
