Johann Christoph Friedrich Bach Sinfonias + Concerto

Les oeuvres de Johann Christoph Friedrich Bach (1732–1795), premier violon solo à Bückeburg, se placent sous l'influence de son frère aîné Carl Philipp Emanuel et de la musique italienne de l'époque. À côté de grands et ambitieux oratorios, il laisse deux motets de grande qualité, une série de cantates de fête, et surtout un grand nombre d'oeuvres instrumentales, qui se rapprochent déjà de l'idiome sonore classique.

Gottfried von der Goltz has made a respected international name for himself as a Baroque violinist and Artistic Director of the Freiburger Barockorchester. As was common during the 18th century, he leads the FBO from the platform of the concertmaster. He also occasionally swaps the violin for the baton as, for example, in the Freiburger Barockorchester’s Beethoven Series which stretched over a period of many years. Gottfried von der Goltz made the specialist world sit up and take notice with successful CD recordings of the regrettably long-forgotten music of the Dresden Baroque and Bach’s sons. Nevertheless, he does not want to restrict himself to being a specialist in a particular repertoire. His diverse discography, ranging from the 17th century to the modern, shows instead that he is a tremendously versatile and flexible musician. In addition to his multi-layered chamber music engagements, Gottfried von der Goltz is Artistic Director of the Norsk Barokkorkesters. As a Professor, he is also a sought after teacher of Baroque and modern violin at the Hochschule für Musik in Freiburg. Plus d'information sur la personne

Christine Schornsheim has enjoyed a busy career as a soloist and with renowned early music ensembles for several years, performing in concert series and festivals. Concert tours have taken her throughout Europe and America, to Israel and regularly to Japan. For several years her most important musical partners have been Andreas Staier on two keyboards, two fortepianos or fortepiano duet, the gamba player Hille Perl and transverse flautist Michael Schmidt-Casdorff. In 2005 her recording of the complete solo keyboard repertoire of Joseph Haydn, performed on five historic keyboard instruments, was acclaimed as a major milestone. Her recording with Andreas Staier of Mozart’s piano works for four hands on an unusual instrument which combines harpsichord and fortepiano and built by Andreas Stein, has attracted great interest. Christine Schornsheim was appointed professor of harpsichord at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Munich in October 2002. Plus d'information sur la personne
