Concertzender Live

Live recordings, made by the Concertzender, of concerts with Early Music. In this episode we’ll broadcast two recordings which we made recently: Mille Affetti by Concerto d’Amsterdam with mezzo-soprano Luciana Mancini (see photo) and Kathedrale Klanken by Ensemble Hermes.

A) Mille Affetti – Concerto d’Amsterdam
On Sunday 12 May 2019 the concert Mille Affetti took place in the St. Nicholas church in Utrecht. Mille Affetti – a thousand feelings: love and fidelity, but also sorrow, anger and despair set the tone for this programme.
Singer Luciana Mancini is with her warm and expressieve, but also sometimes almost raw and heartbreaking voice the ideal advocate of this repertoire. You will hear arias from Veracini’s ‘Adriano in Siria’ and Händel’s ‘Ariodante’.

Baroque orchestra Concerto d’Amsterdam conducted by violinist Stefano Rossi frames Mancini’s beautiful arias with instrumental repertoire, which sprang from the same source: a concerto grosso of Corelli and two of the miraculous compositions of Charles Avison, based on the music of Domenico Scarlatti.

Arcangelo Corelli (1673-1713)
1. Concerto grosso op. 6 no. 1 in D major
– Largo-Allegro-Adagio-Allegro-Adagio-Allegro-Largo-Allegro

Hermes Ensemble

B) Kathedrale Klanken – Hermes Ensemble
A day before, on Saturday 11 May 2019, the Hermes Ensemble conducted by Jeroen Spitteler gave a concert with the title ‘Kathedrale klanken’.
The famous choirbooks of the Illustrious Brotherhood of Our Blessed Lady testify to an age-long breeding ground for new music in the St. John’s Cathedral in ’s-Hertogenbosch.
The mass ‘In te Domine speravi’ of the 16th century Dutch master Gheerkin de Hondt is one of the works from these choirbooks and forms an important part of the concert. It has never been performed in its entirety, so you will hear a premiere!

In addition to this 16th century music you will also hear more recent works which derive from the St. John’s Cathedral: of Maurice Pirenne, organist and Rector Cantus of the Cathedral for many years.
This concert brings polyphony and the thereupon inspired music of Pirenne together.

Gheerkin de Hondt (approx. 1500-1547)
