Narratives (Cape Town Baroque Trio at Woordfees)

The Cape Town Baroque Trio explores various methods of instrumental narration from the baroque era. The baroque practices of affect, rhetoric, allegory and symbolism are demonstrated in the programme, where seasoned baroque instrumentalists Annien Shaw (baroque violin), Ralitza Macheva (baroque violin) and Rosamund Ender (viola da gamba) perform works by Corelli, Biber, Telemann, and Vivaldi. They also showcase an innovative new composition for baroque instruments by Antoni Schonken. The recital is followed by a free music discussion with artists upstairs in the Banqueting Hall.
