When seeking out the forerunners of the influential »Mannheim School«, one often stumbles across the name of Johann Evangelist Brandl, born in Regensburg in 1760.  Even if he never actually belonged to the leading lights of the musical avant-garde, Brandl was nevertheless in close touch with prominent musicians at the Bruchsal court of the Bishop of Speyer. They helped him when the bishop was forced to flee the invading French in 1792, who finally conquered Bruchsal seven years later. Brandl’s new place of work became the Francophile court of the Grand Duke of Baden. There, until his death in 1837, he composed numerous works for his beloved bassoon – including the Quintet, Op. 63.

When looking for the role models of the influential "Mannheim School", one often comes across the name of Johann Evangelist Brandl, born in Regensburg in 1760. Even though the Upper Palatinate native never made it to the actual Mecca of the musical avant-garde, he nevertheless made enough contacts with colleagues in the Bruchsal court of the Prince-Bishop of Speyer. They helped him when the bishop had to flee from the French in 1792, who then finally took Bruchsal seven years later. Brandl's new place of work was the Francophile court of the Grand Duke of Baden. There he composed numerous works for the bassoon, which he loved, until his death in 1837 - including the Quintet op.63.

Even though Bach and Telemann lived at the same time, wrote in similar genres, and knew each other – they were born in the same year and their paths crossed many times – their musical styles differ.

As early as the 18th century, composers were fighting for a European continent without national boundaries. Their music transfer affected not only singers and instrumentalists, but also styles, genres and trends. Italian violinists caused a sensation in London and Dresden, and in Hamburg people danced à la française. You can hear this in the second baroque concert of the season. The Croatian pianist Dejan Lazić and Dutch conductor Jan Willem de Vriend provide additional international flair.

"The most perfect in terms of the whole is the opera orchestra of the Polish king in Dresden" - When the arts were in full bloom at the court of Augustus the Strong and the celebration of the century was approaching with the wedding of his only legitimate son, Frederick Augustus, the best virtuosos were hired from all over Europe. For this event and the "orchestra di Dresda", the great composers of the time outdid each other with new works that still fascinate today.

An exciting journey of discovering the wide-ranging world of the Baroque era: the programme features a hand-picked selection of chamber music from the 17th and 18th centuries, some of which are rarely heard works filled with virtuosity, colours and melodic expression. And there is a marvellous foray into some of the European courts of this era. The influence of the Dresden court lutenist Sylvius Leopold Weiss, for example, reached far beyond Saxony: Wilhelmine, the music-loving Margravine of Bayreuth, also arranged for his harmonious compositions to be performed in her palace. When Telemann presented his series of quartets at the royal court in Versailles, the musical world there was at his feet – as the elegant and engaging dance movements were his fervent homage to the most elegant court in Europe at the time. It was said of Karl Kohaut that he was a »must-hear« when visiting Vienna. He was regarded as a gifted player of the lute in Haydn’s circle, but also composed himself – often with a preference for folk idioms. Michel Lambert was not only famous as a singer in the Parisian salons in the age of Louis XIV, but was also widely popular for his marvellous melodies, which were published widely as instrumental works. At the end of the Baroque picture book, we hear wonderful variations on the »Follia« tune, a stirring dance in triple metre that was a popular hit in Europe at that time: it was performed constantly in the streets, whether sung, whistled or stomped. Vivaldi’s magnificent version is a true showdown between the instruments.

»Music should touch the heart!« Giovanni Antonini is a phenomenal artist who succeeds in realising this credo of 18th century composers. The Italian conductor likes to indulge in the emotional worlds that the works tell us about, immersing himself in the effects and emotions. A musician who has his own language in the midst of all the performers, whose signature is unmistakable and who breathes a lot of fresh air. His energy is truly infectious – and when asked where he gets it from, he once replied in an interview: »I get it from the music. Even after a concert, which was exhausting and tiring, I’m always tired in a positive sense, that’s the difference. And so on the day after, I’m ready for a new musical adventure. And of course there is also my great love for music!« However, he is not only a fiery spirit, but also a sharp-witted analyst. He is particularly well-known for his innovative and sophisticated approaches to the baroque and classical repertoire – and we love to regularly and intensively explore this historical approach with him. This time he takes us into Mozart's adventure world: his last two symphonies are on the programme. In between, there is another »musical adventure«, which Giovanni Antonini has rarely done recently, but which he is happy to do with us: as an accomplished recorder player, he himself takes on the solo part in Telemann’s original instrumental concerto. Our audience is in for a wonderful musical stroll through the colours and temperaments of the 18th century – where the point was always to »delight the connoisseurs and lovers of music«.

The shepherds play an important role in Polish Christmas tales and songs, the Kolenden. They symbolize the simplicity, laughter and faith of the people who worship the baby Jesus: » Let’s all go to the stable!  « says one of the most beautiful Polish Christmas carols, which really makes your legs twitch and you can feel the shepherds running off together in their great joy. » Hej, Kolenda!  « is the motto of our Christmas concert, the centerpiece of which is a nativity play set to music. Some of the most popular kolendas are played, including the famous » Luleise, Jesulein «, which was sung to Frédéric Chopin by his mother.

Experience an intimate evening of French-inspired chamber music with the Portland Baroque Orchestra's presentation of "Bach & Telemann: French Finesse." This program showcases the exquisite artistry of two esteemed German composers, Johann Sebastian Bach and Georg Philipp Telemann, who were not only contemporaries but also friends. Their works are infused with the sonic richness and rhythmic nuance of the French style, creating a unique vibrancy that captivates the senses.

Complementing this is Bach’s Trio Sonata in G Major, BWV 1038, which highlights his mastery of counterpoint and melodic development. The program also includes Jean-Philippe Rameau’s Concerto No. 5 in D Minor from "Pièces de clavecin en concerts," a work that blends the harpsichord with other instruments in a richly textured dialogue. Additionally, the Trio Sonata No. 1 in G Minor by Elisabeth Claude Jacquet de la Guerre offers a glimpse into the innovative spirit of one of the few prominent female composers of the Baroque era.

Under the artistic direction of Julian Perkins, who will also perform on the harpsichord, the ensemble features Toma Iliev on violin and Joanna Blendulf on violoncello.

As appealing as a solo concerto is, isn't a double concerto twice as interesting? Two soloists who pass the ball to each other, who compete, outdo each other, who come together for a pas de deux? This evening, two are simply twice as good: the soloists of the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra. Three concertos for two solo instruments are on the programme, composed by the baroque trio of Bach, Telemann and Vivaldi. Of his 50 or so concertos for two instruments, Vivaldi only composed one for two trumpets, a solitaire in the extensive catalogue of works by the virtuoso Venetian. Bach's double concerto BWV 1043 was also a one-off piece - anyone who writes for two writes exclusively. The evening will be led by the British harpsichordist and conductor Jonathan Cohen, who has made a name for himself not only with his own ensemble Arcangelo. He has toured with the Academy of Ancient Music as well as with William Christie's ensemble Les Arts Florissants, which has now appointed him Associate Conductor. Franz Schubert's Mozart-like 5th Symphony, probably the most mature of his early symphonic works, will be the delightful finale of this Baroque+ program.

The animal kingdom comes alive through charming works for orchestra under the direction of Principal Guest Conductor Nicholas Kraemer. Dogs bark in Vivaldi’s “Spring” Concerto from the famous Four Seasons. Crickets chirp in Telemann’s unusually scored Cricket Symphony, while frogs ribbit in his virtuosic concerto for violin. Delight in the “clucking” and “scratching” in Haydn’s Hen Symphony, which closes the program on a wonderfully humorous note.

Georg Muffat’s words are as relevant today as when he wrote them in 1695. Here, musical styles range from his French-infused dances to Andrzej Panufnik’s unique recreation of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century musical fragments from Poland that were almost lost to the ravages of war. Our season culminates with an Italianate symphony by the Ukrainian composer Maxim Berezovsky.
