At the heart of the repertoire are the oratorios of Handel, although the orchestra also extends its activities to the classical and early romantic periods, in its special attention to the principles of early music performance practice.

The choir has since then won a reputation for its many performances of music from the Baroque to the Markert • Schoch contemporary and has enjoyed a happy collaboration with the Frankfurt Baroque Orchestra. The choir schedule has brought regular participation in festivals of major regional importance, notably the Whit celebrations at Kloster Mertens Eberbach im Rheingau and in the church of St Peter in Heidelberg. For its work the choir has depended on the support of friends, patrons and sponsors and the present recording is the result of the support of the Lafarge Braas GmbH in Oberursel, to which the Junge Kantorei wishes to express its gratitude. Joachim Carlos Martini Junge Kantorei Joachim Carlos Martini was born in Valdivia, in Chile, to German parents, and in 1968, with the youth pastor of the Evangelical Church in Hess and Nassau, Fritz Eitel, set up the Junge Kantorei, to the direction of which he has Frankfurt Baroque for some years chiefly devoted himself. At the same time he conducts the Frankfurt Baroque Orchestra, established together with friends, an ensemble that specialises in historical performance practice, bringing together for this purpose musicians from all over Europe.

  • Season of Song 2010
    Art Song Canberra Inc. www.artsongcanberra.org SEASON OF SONG 2010 In 2010 Art Song Canberra will present seven recitals of fine art song by an outstanding array of award-winning, highly-accomplished artists, many of them widely experienced on the world stage. Background Art Song Canberra is a dedicated group of volunteers and lovers of art song. It was founded as the A.C.T. Lieder Society in 1976 by a small group of devotees of art song led by Eleanor Houston OAM of Covent Garden fame. The society changed its name to Art Song Canberra in 2006. Its purpose is to foster and extend the love of art song. This is done mainly by: presenting high quality concerts to its members and the general public. The annual series is called the Season of Song; conducting an annual Festival of Song in which aspiring singers perform to an audience in a relatively relaxed and friendly environment and receive advice and encouragement from an acknowledged expert; providing opportunities for concert performance for dedicated and talented amateur singers. This format has met with considerable audience approval and Art Song Canberra has scheduled another such event in its Season of Song 2010; and conducting Members’ Soirées, social gatherings of members to sing and play together, taking us back to the origin of Lieder societies. The society presents a series of six or seven vocal recitals each year – the Season of Song. Most of the society‟s artists over the years have been have been highly accomplished both in Australia and internationally. Among the many artists who have performed for the society are such noted Australian singers as Eleanor Houston, Michael Martin, Sally-Anne Russell, Tobias Cole, Warwick Fyfe, Christopher Allan, Angela Giblin, Louise Page and Christina Wilson as well as Susan Burghardt from the USA and Thomas Weinhappel from Vienna.

  • Programmheft
    Die Kantate des beginnenden 18. Jahrhunderts als musikalisches Experimentierfeld mit europäischem Horizont Zu Beginn des 18. Jahrhunderts setzten sich zahlreiche Komponisten innerhalb der Gattung der Kantate mit musikdramaturgischen Entwicklungen aus ganz Europa auseinander. Die in den Kantaten vertonten Texte waren dabei zumeist bestimmten Autorinnen oder Autoren gar nicht mehr zuzuordnen, da sie weit verbreitet und immer wieder angepasst wurden. Inhaltlich und formal spiegeln die Texte sowohl thematische Schwerpunkte wie die in Rom sehr ausgeprägte Vorliebe für Arkadien als auch die an der französischen Tragödie orientierte venezianische Librettoreform. Die Vertonungen entstanden hingegen oft in Anlehnung an das Studium von Partituren namhafter Komponisten, im Hinblick auf die Konzeptionen eigener Opern oder in Auseinandersetzung mit übergreifenden Stilen musikdramatischer Aussagen und der durch sie transportierten Soziabilitätsvorstellungen. Besonders letztere konnten sich zwischen den einzelnen europäischen Musikzentren wie z.B. Venedig, Rom und London deutlich unterscheiden, sodass davon auszugehen ist, dass die Kantate um 1700 sowohl von durch rege Notentransfers und Musikermobilität beförderten regional übergreifenden Dynamiken neuer musikalischer Entwicklungen, als auch von ganz spezifischen lokalen Rezeptionsmodi und Aufführungsbedingungen geprägt war. Auf diese Weise stellte sie ein einzigartiges Experimentierfeld für Komponisten dar, die sich in den europäischen Musikzentren wie London, Rom, Neapel oder Venedig etablieren wollten

  • NEWSLETTER of the American Handel Society
    NEWSLETTER of The American Handel Society Volume XVIII, Number 3 December 2003 HOUSTON GRAND OPERA’S GIULIO CESARE Giulio Cesare is one of Handel’s most justly celebrated operas. First performed in 1724, it was revived several times during the composer’s lifetime. Donald Burrows, in his Master Musicians biography of Handel selects the opera for detailed analysis, citing among its strengths, "a fast-moving plot, full of incident, and some of Handel’s best arias, as well as scenes that are spectacular from both musical and dramatic standpoints."1 During the twentieth century the opera was revived fairly regularly, though it often fell victim to the well-intentioned surgery of producers, directors and conductors. Music History teachers of a certain vintage can remember the Norton Anthology of Western Music recorded excerpt which featured the title role sung by Wagnerian bass Hans Hotter. It was also not so long ago when the choice of recorded versions was limited to a severely cut, Belliniesque ornamented American recording and an uncut every-da-capo-taken-but-unornamented German performance. Just two years ago, while preparing a performance of excerpts for an Opera Scenes class, I was frustrated in my attempts to find a score with the part of Caesar in treble clef, the choices being bass or alto clef. The recordings of Giulio Cesare have improved recently, but the work still awaits a critical edition and Handel’s beautiful yet lengthy score remains a challenging one for opera houses Keiichiro Watanabe March 2, 1932 - December 12, 2001 to realize on the stage.
