Sous la direction peu convaincante de Paul McCreesh, le Gabrieli Consort a livré un programme italien inégal, malgré l'incarnation brûlante de la mezzo-soprano Ann Hallenberg.

A mixed programme of Corelli, Handel and Pergolesi brings beauty and spiritual intensity, as well as some empowered erotic playfulness, to an evening with the Academy of Ancient Music. 

Jeudi 12 janvier dernier, le Convention Palace de Bethléem accueillait Amandine Beyer dans un programme consacré à Corelli, après une semaine de résidence où la violoniste française a formé un orchestre de jeunes musiciens particulièrement talentueux. Ce concert a été marqué par l’engagement et les qualités extrêmement prometteuses des interprètes.

Craig Ogden in Castelnuovo-Tedesco's Guitar Concerto no. 1 is the highlight of the Northern Chamber Orchestra's varied concert of (mostly) Italian music in Macclesfield.

Can you imagine being a concertgoer in the early years of the 18th century, when Corelli, Vivaldi, Bach and Handel were all writing new music and performers were being pushed to find new ways of playing?

Most striking about the Academy of Ancient Music’s playing is its neatness: every phrase is so precisely shaped, so clean. Presumably this is down to impeccable preparation as well as an intrinsic feeling in the group for how Baroque music should sound. But their playing also sounds fresh, new, surprising.
