SUMMARY:Newton Baroque presents Harmonia artificioso-ariosa: Music for two violins and continuo by Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber
DESCRIPTION:The day is fast approaching when Newton Baroque will take a huge leap and play our first concert at a major international festival. On June 9\, we will play an all-Biber program at the Tage Alter Musik in Regensburg\, Germany. Before we leave for Germany\, we’ll play the concert on May 9 and 10 for our friends in Boston and Newton. The program consists entirely of Partie for two violins and continuo from Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber’s Harmonia artificioso-ariosa. Each of the four Partie on the concert requires a different scordatura tuning\, and they are arguably the most astounding works for two violins and continuo from the 17th century. You may have heard us play a few of these pieces before; over the last two years\, we have programmed isolated sonatas from the set to prepare for our event in Regensburg\, and now you can hear the full program in its entirety. If there were ever a do-not-miss concert\, it is this one. These pieces by Biber are incredibly challenging technically\, but we have been preparing for a long time\, and they are polished and ready. Also\, we have been living with them long enough now to engage in even more than our usual amount of risk-taking\, and I believe you will be in for a tremendous show. Susanna and Christina are among the best in the world at playing this music\, and Cullen and Andrus are in the perfect continuo groove to underpin the violin fireworks.
