Caprice au 9e | Telemann and The Traveling Musicians of the Baroque Era

Additional Information

This Tuesday at 5 p.m., the 9th Grande Salle at the Eaton Centre will host the Caprice ensemble for a one-hour program centered on the great German composer Georg Philipp Telemann, as well as itinerant musicians who may have crossed paths with him during the Baroque era—hence the anonymous section of the program titled “Nomadic Music of Eastern Europe.” For this occasion, Caprice will feature recorders (Sophie Larivière), Baroque violins (Lucie Ringuette and Tanya LaPerrière), Baroque cello (Jean-Christophe Lizotte), Baroque guitar (David Jacques), percussion (Ziya Tabassian), and soprano vocals (Janelle Lucyk).

Matthias Maute, conductor, flutist, artistic director, and co-founder of Caprice, talks here about Telemann and the traveling musicians of his time.
