European Union Baroque Orchestra (EUBO) maakt opnieuw zijn opwachting in AMUZ. Onder leiding van klavecinist en dirigent Francesco Corti krijgen de jonge musici de kans enkele iconische repertoirestukken uit de barokmuziek uit te voeren. In Johann Sebastian Bachs eerste Brandenburgs concerto en Zelenka’s Ouverture-suite in F krijgen de strijkers en barokhobo’s volop de kans te schitteren. 

De Franse barokmuziek met zijn verfijnde versieringen en ritmes vraagt een andere insteek dan de orkestwerken van Bach en Zelenka. Francesco Corti koos voor een selectie instrumentale nummers uit Jean-Marie Leclairs opera Scylla et Glaucus en Jean-Féry Rebels laatste compositie, Les éléments. In Les éléments verklankt Rebel de schepping van de vier elementen aarde, lucht, vuur en water uit de chaos. Het openingsdeel, dat de chaos verklankt, werd gecomponeerd in 1738 en begint met een akkoord dat zowaar als klankcluster uit een 20ste-eeuwse partituur van Stockhausen of Ligeti zou kunnen komen.

The European Union Baroque Orchestra (EUBO) is making another appearance at AMUZ. Led by the harpsichordist and conductor Francesco Corti, the young musicians have the opportunity to perform iconic pieces of Baroque music repertoire. In Johann Sebastian Bach’s first Brandenburg Concerto and Zelenka’s Ouverture-Suite in F Major, the strings and Baroque oboes have every opportunity to shine. 

French Baroque music, with its refined rhythms and ornamentations, requires a different approach from Bach and Zelenka’s works for the orchestra. Francesco Corti has opted for a selection of instrumental pieces from Jean-Marie Leclair’s opera Scylla et Glaucus and Jean-Féry Rebel’s last composition, Les Eléments. In Les Eléments, Rebel evokes the creation of the four elements, earth, air, fire and water, out of chaos. The opening section, evoking chaos, was composed in 1738 and begins with a chord that might easily have been a cluster from a 20th century score by Stockhausen or Ligeti.
