About event

☘️ 7th concert of the summer part of the 7th year of the Chamber Music Festival in the Domus & Hortus Artis House and Garden of the Albrecht House 2026

🎵 Baroque composers, such as Antonio Vivaldi, Christoph Graupner and Georg Philipp Telemann, often used chalumeau for programmatic and atmospheric purposes. Thanks to its dark, yet delicate sonority, this instrument was ideal for portraying nature, tender emotional moments or pastoral scenes in operas and oratorios. Due to its dexterity and vocal expressiveness, the chalumeau allowed performers to imitate bird sounds, for example. Vivaldi supported the atmosphere of the aria Veni, veni, me sequera fida (in Juditha triumphans) with the soprano chalumeau and, using the color and diction of this instrument, directly captured the bird's voice. The instrument was also extremely popular in the Habsburg Imperial Band and is prescribed in almost four dozen operas from its repertoire; in chamber music he appeared in the first decade of the 18th century in duets published in Amsterdam.
