Ashford Baroque Ensemble

Our next concert is on Sunday afternoon, 23rd July, 4.30-5.30, at St Matthew's, Ashford.

The programme is:

Albinoni - Sonata a Cinque in G, Op.2, No.1

WF Bach - Sinfonia in F, F.67 

Cambini - Trio for Flute, Oboe and Bassoon in G minor, Op.45, No.2

Mozart - Eine Kleine Nachtmusik

In this concert we play the enchanting Sonata in G for 5 instrumental parts by Albinoni, followed by the extraordinary Sinfonia by JS Bach's 2nd eldest son, Wilhelm Friedemann. This Sinfonia is known as the 'Dissonance', but actually it is the abrupt rhythms which are the most striking, since our ears have become accustomed to plenty of dissonance since the Baroque period!

After this we move ahead to the early Classical period with a delightful woodwind Trio by Cambini, and then we finish with the ever-popular Eine Kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart.
