The world’s biggest early music festival is once again upon us. This year in Utrecht we will take two musical icons as our points of reference: Sweelinck and Bach. We also look forward to sharing with you the extraordinary musical riches that lie between them. Two seasoned guides will accompany us on our journey: Harry van der Kamp and Masaaki Suzuki.
Yet there is much, much more on offer. How about a stage performance of the first Dutch opera, De Triomferende Min? Or colourful German Baroque cantatas? Just imagine keyboard recitals on a historical Ruckers virginal dating from 1604. Or a St Matthew Passion with René Jacobs, who makes his return appearance in Utrecht after 17 years.
You are welcome to drop in at our inviting Pandhof Festival Centre on the Domplein, and to visit a unique exhibition at the Museum Catharijneconvent featuring the works of Gerrit, the artist brother of Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck. Admittance is free upon presentation of your Festival ticket.
Enjoy browsing through the whole booklet: after the festival information you will also find our complete season programme for 2012/2013. This lists all of our concerts for the entire year, at the most atmospheric concert venues in the Netherlands and Flanders.
More than 850 performing artists will demonstrate the full vibrancy and vitality of early music.

Utrecht Early Music Festival and Early Music Season
Aug 24 - Sep 2 2012
“Since my time spent studying as a student in Amsterdam with Ton Koopman and Piet Kee, I have loved the Netherlands, a country that boasts a fantastic Bach tradition. So it is an honour to be artist in residence at the Utrecht Early Music Festival, the world’s pre-eminent early music festival. In the story of Sweelinck to Bach I will naturally focus on the latter period, together with my Bach Collegium Japan, and in doing so I would like to show audiences that Bach did not exist in isolation. Zelenka, Kuhnau, Pachelbel and Johann Sebastian’s own family: they all made a significant contribution to the richness of the German Baroque. My great wish is to give you the opportunity to enjoy this extraordinary repertoire which is so close to my heart.” Masaaki Suzuki & Bach Collegium Japan:
Sat Aug 25: Bach’s Musikalisches Opfer Wed Aug 29: Magnificat
Sun Aug 26: Brunch und Bach Thurs Aug 30: Pachelbel and the Bach family
Artist in residence: Masaaki Suzuki

“Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck is the composer who has completely fascinated me: he was an unassuming man who, besides composing organ and harpsichord works, fused the late Rennaissance with the early Baroque in a masterly way with his pithy oeuvre of chansons, madrigals, rimes, Cantiones Sacrae and, last but not least, all 150 psalms. In the year of its 450th anniversary,this monument of Dutch music will play a major role in the Early Music Festival. In the space of three concerts I will present his richly varied music in an international context with my Gesualdo Consort Amsterdam. Sweelinck knew his classics and the later classics knew him: his influence extends down through generations of students all the way to Bach.”
Harry van der Kamp & Gesualdo Consort Amsterdam:
Fri Aug 24: Schütz and Gabrieli Fri Aug 31: Sweelinck in Holland
Sat Aug 25: Sweelinck’s Cantiones Sacrae Sun Sep 2: Sweelinck and the students of Gabrieli
Tues Aug 28: Summer School
Artist in residence: Harry van der Kamp

The period from Sweelinck’s birth to Bach’s death spans almost two whole centuries. Despite this it is possible to draw a virtually direct line between these two great figures, from teacher to student and down through the generations. Bach could not have become what he was without Sweelinck.
While this is true, it is not the full story, so we would like to add to the picture during this year’s Early Music Festival. For not all roads lead to Bach. Just listen to Zelenka: the contrast is so great that you could imagine yourself half a century down the track, yet he is almost Bach’s exact contemporary. It is also enriching to include the musical tale of the Reformation: from the rich French psalm culture in household circles, to the Lutheran chorale in its surprising and varied forms.
However this festival is no history lesson. Rather, it is a public declaration of love for a collection of unique repertoire. From the loveliest early psalm settings, taking in the sweetest 17th-century chamber music, to the most colourful German Baroque cantatas.
This Festival is a vibrant kaleidoscope of popular and little known music, all of it first rate, so feel free to join us and listen in anywhere and at any time. Whether you are a connoisseur or encountering early music for the very first time, the quality of the repertoire is so convincing that it will whet your appetite for more.

Gustav Leonhardt’s death in January 2012 has deprived the early music movement of one of its greatest advocates. The importance of Leonhardt’s role in cham- pioning unjustly neglected repertoire and performing it on historical instruments can scarcely be overestimated.
From August 31 to September 2 2012 Stimu, the Dutch Foundation for Historical Performance Practice will present a symposium entitled Mostofwhatwedoishypothetical:GustavLeonhardtandhisEarlyMusic in collaboration with the Amsterdam Conservatoire. The musical and social context in which Leonhardt’s early work was carried out will be discussed, as well as the latest research into the music that he so much admired. The main scope will not be limited to the musically rich life of one individual, but will primarily focus on the directions a movement can choose to take, following the death of a person who has left an aesthetic mark of ongoing influence and enduring value.
The symposium will be preceded by a screening of ChronikderAnnaMagdalenaBach, the film by Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet, which was premièred in Utrecht 45 years ago, with performances by Leonhardt (in the role of J.S. Bach), Nikolaus Harnoncourt and Bob van Asperen.
language: English
speakers: Kailan Rubinoff, Frits Zwart, Ton Koopman, John Butt, Richard Egarr,

Organ day in Leiden From Sweelinck to Bach
In Leiden there are three organs dating from Sweelinck’s time within walking distance of each other, restored to their original condition in mean-tone (Pieterskerk), in 17th century style (Hooglandse Kerk) and in Baroque style (Marekerk). Reitze Smits will talk about each instrument and perform a short concert, illustrating the path linking Sweelinck to Bach: the ideal introduction to this year’s Festival theme.

Summer School: Carl Van EyndhovenLet the carillon sound
The carillonneur and researcher Carl Van Eyndhoven has immersed himself in the remarkable development of the carillon in 17th century Netherlands. While the sourcesare meagre, thanks to two ‘versteek’ books from Brussels containing arrangements for the automatic playing drum of the carillon, we can have some idea of the music played from the towers in this period: French-style balletsdecour, madrigals and motets. Van Eyndhoven discusses his research during a lecture preceding his carillon recital.

A combination that is bound to produce a totally unique open air concert.

Bell ringing & church bell guided walks Throughout the city centre of Utrecht, members of the Utrecht Bell Ringers Guild will present a church bell concert, starting with the bells of the Dom Tower and gradually building up to reach imposing ‘full volume ringing’ with all 13 bells. Afterwards the other church bells in the city will be added to the concert until church bell music echoes across the entire city. At 12.15 p.m. two guided church bell walks will commence from the Domplein: a western and a southern route that follow the bell ringing relay on foot.
AVRO/NTR Festival bulletinOn eight evenings from 25 August to 2 September inclusive, AVRO/Radio4 will broadcast a special Festival bulletin, in which the presenter Mark Brouwers will introduce his guests and their music to you on location. These daily, live impressions of the Festival will precede the Radio4 broadcast of the evening concert.

Malgosia Fiebig Scheidemann, Buxtehude, Walther on the carillon
Organ music assumes a key role in this year’s Festival: after all, a direct line can be drawn linking Sweelinck and his northern-German organ students to Bach in Leipzig. Two important figures en route are Buxtehude and Scheidemann. Malgosia Fiebig’s carillon recital perfectly complements the preceding organ recital by Wolfgang Zerer. She plays on the light Baroque Hemony carillon of the Nicolaïkerk.
Wolfgang ZererScheidemann: organ works
Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck was evidently satisfied with the ‘pious Jonghmans Henderich Scheijtman, from Hamborg’, dedicating a canon to his student upon his departure from Amsterdam. Returning to his birthplace, Scheidemann unleashed a veritable explosion of crea- tivity along with his colleagues Weckmann, Praetorius and Schop. Wolfgang Zerer, himself a teacher in Hamburg, knows this founder of the German organ school as none other.

Trinity Baroque / Julian PodgerThe many facets of Sweelinck
Aside from his official duties as organist of the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam, Sweelinck composed works in many vocal genres. The singers of Trinity Baroque present a varied programme of psalms, Latin and French motets and secular genres in Italian and French. Organ toccatas, fantasias and the Ballettodelgranduca performed by the organist James Johnstone complete the spectrum.
Sergey MalovBach’s cello suites on the viola da spalla
Until several years ago the viola da spalla was nothing more than a theoretical concept; however, thanks to the important reconstruction work of Sigiswald Kuijken and the instrument maker Dmitry Badiarov, the ‘shoulder violin’ now occupies a well-recognised position between the cello and violin. The young violin virtuoso Sergey Malov takes on the challenge, performing not just Bach’s cello suites nos. 1 and 6 but also the third violin partita on his new spalla.

Masaaki Suzuki & coBach: Musikalisches Opfer and other chamber music
Masaaki Suzuki begins his Utrecht residency in intimate fashion with Bach’s chamber music for traverso and violin. His programme includes the trio sonata from the MusikalischesOpfer, based on the enigmatic theme provided by Frederick the Great himself. Even at an advanced age Bach proved to be totally au fait with the latest, elegant mode, while naturally including his personal trademark: mellifluous counterpoint.
Cordevento / Erik BosgraafBach: Concertos on … the recorder
There are recorder concertos in abundance, but not by Bach. Or maybe there are, after all... Starting from the idea that the recorder is a constant factor in Bach’s oeuvre, festival favourite Erik Bosgraaf appropriates several of Bach’s concertos. The result is refreshing: you will hear the oboe concerto BWV 1059 and the concerto for harpsichord BWV 1053 performed on the recorder! In this way there are always new aspects to discover in Bach’s timeless music.

Collegium 1704 / Václav LuksZelenka: Missa omnium sanctorum (1741)
Experiencing Zelenka’s exciting, harmonically daring style, it is hard to believe that he and Bach were virtual contemporaries. Leipzig is separated from Catholic Dresden by a mere one hundred kilometres, yet the contrast between the two could scarcely be any greater. Collegium 1704, the Zelenka ensemble par excellence, will delight the audience with the Missaomniumsanctorum, Zelenka’s final mass.

Harry van der Kamp and his Gesualdo Consort Amsterdam have won many awards for their Sweelinck Monument: the complete CD recording of his vocal music. So they are the ideal festival guests to showcase Sweelinck’s oeuvre in no less than three concerts. This evening they will do so in large-scale formation, performing several of his finest six- to eight-voice psalms and motets. While these may have been composed for prayer within the home, they represent domestic music-making in its most monumental form.

L’Armonia Sonora & Concerto PalatinoRosenmüller: motets with winds
Rosenmüller was on the brink of being appointed to the post of Thomascantor in Leipzig when his sudden arrest in 1655 put the brakes on his career. However the conse- quences were not so bad: he escaped from prison and left for Venice, where he immersed himself in the sump-tuous style of San Marco. In an exclusive performance for Utrecht, Mieneke van der Velden & co present several phenomenal solo motets in a modern world première.
José Miguel MorenoBach, Weiss, Kellner: lute music
In the early 18th century the role of the lute in Germanywas undergoing a serious decline. A mere handful of virtuosi continued to uphold the honour of the instrument, including David Kellner in Hamburg, whose surprisingly short manual even appeared in the Netherlands. Silvius Weiss enjoyed even greater renown: his extensive lute oeuvre is on a par with that of Bach. José Miguel Moreno has built a new instrument specially for this programme.

Malgosia FiebigBöhm & Telemann on the carillon
Georg Böhm, a figure of considerable influence for the young Bach, wrote much chamber music. Malgosia Fiebig reveals her own arrangements of two of his keyboard suites and an overture. From Telemann, Bach’s rival for the post of Cantor at the Thomaskirche, we will hear two recorder sonatas. Incidentally, during this concert you can take a close-up look at the carillon. Fifteen daredevils will be admitted at 12.00 p.m. to make the seventy-meter ascent.
Nima Ben David & Pierre TrocellierBach: Sonatas for gamba and harpsichord
In the hands of the Israeli Nima Ben David the viola da gamba seems like the world’s easiest instrument to play. She throws herself into the sonatas that Bach wrote for her instrument with contagious delight. But did Bach actually have the viola da gamba specifically in mind? No one knows, however it is certain that Bach liked to reuse his own music. Several chamber music pieces arranged for keyboard give clear proof of this.

Les Plaisirs du Parnasse / David Plantier Westhoff en Walther: two violin virtuosi
In 1674 Johann Jakob Walther and Johann Paul von Westhoff took up appointments at the Dresden Hofkapelle. Together with Biber they were considered to be the leading violinists of their day, each with his particular idiosyncrasies, such as Walther’s predilection for imitating other instruments and animals. The violinist David Plantier has a thorough knowledge of both composers’ music after years of intensive study and two pioneering recordings.
Armonico Tributo / Lorenz DuftschmidL’echo du Danube: Schenck’s gamba music
Schenck’s two sparkling suites L’echo du Danube and Le nymphe di Reno are among his best works, which instantly places them at the pinnacle of the gamba repertoire. During his travels as a diplomat, the Amsterdammer picked up all kinds of influences, so his oeuvre is a reflection of musical Europe. Lorenz Duftschmid leads Armonico Tributo Austria, playing on his original Stainer gamba dating from 1674.

Brisk & Johan Linderoth Senfl, Isaac: tenor songs
Heinrich Isaac and his student Ludwig Senfl enjoyed a close friendship, which began at the court of Emperor Maximilian in Innsbruck. Together they brought the tenor song to great heights, a genre in which a popular melody or chorale melody forms the basis for a refined filigree of voices. The recorder ensemble Brisk places these melodies, at times sweet, at times audacious, in the hands of the Swedish tenor Johan Linderoth.
Rare Fruits Council / Manfredo KraemerTravels from Biber to Buxtehude
Tracing his (distant) musical predecessors, the star violinist Manfredo Kraemer makes the journey from the Alps to the Baltic Sea and back, with stopovers in Salzburg for Biber and Nuremberg for Pachelbel, then on to Saxony for Rosenmüller and finally to Reincken’s Hamburg and Buxtehude’s Lübeck. Their marvellously virtuosic violin repertoire, rooted in the stylusfantasticus, is in the most capable hands with The Rare Fruits Council.

La Chapelle Rhénane / Benoît HallerSchütz: Psalmen Davids (selection)
With his PsalmenDavids (1619), Heinrich Schützsummarised everything that he had learned, especially during the four years he spent in Venice under Giovanni Gabrieli’s wing. The colourful multi-choral psalms marked the beginning of his career in Dresden and unleashed a musical revolution there. The Strasbourg based group La Chapelle Rhénane emphasises the at times raw expression of the Old Testament texts.

La Divina Armonia / Lorenzo GhielmiCantates of Buxtehude, Bruhns, Böhm and Bach
La Divina Armonia is one of the most profoundly expressive Baroque ensembles currently on the scene. Its leader Lorenzo Ghielmi has programmed the finest Baroque cantatas for soloists and a compact instrumental group. An Italian by birth, Ghielmi is a leading Bach authority and a seasoned specialist in northern German Baroque expressivity.

Armed with new knowledge Holland Baroque Society presents a melange of his highly expressive and challenging usic, which was known throughout Europe around 1700 but has since fallen into neglect.

Elfa Rún KristinsdóttirTelemann, Bach, Gosfield: violin solos
She is young and unassuming, yet also fiercely ambitious: the Icelander Elfa Rún Kristinsdóttir believes in transcending all limits. As the leader of the Berlin Soloist Ensemble Kaleidoskop, but also as a soloist, she challenges audiences with a feisty combination of old and new music. In her Utrecht performance a touch of Annie Gosfield, New York City’s leading avant-garde composer, will be heard alongside Telemann and Bach.

Malgosia FiebigSchein, Praetorius Telemann on the carillon
The term ‘Tafelmusik’ was first used in 16th century Germany to describe a phenomenon dating from the Middle Ages. Church music was for God, chamber music was for the musicians, but tafelmusik was played for members of the court: so actually we are talking about the first official concert genre. The term was often attached to suites during the Baroque era, such as those featured in this programme by Schein (from Banchettomusicale), Michael Praetorius and Telemann.
Summer School: Lionel Meunier & Vox LuminisLuther and the chorale
The young singers of Vox Luminis specialise in music from across the whole of Europe, from Renaissance to Baroque, however, they are particularly devoted to the German chorale and to all its subsequent forms. The group’s artistic director Lionel Meunier talks about his discoveries in this lecture-performance, with theassistance of several of his singers.

The celebrated Italian organist Lorenzo Ghielmi places religious songs from Böhm’s oeuvre and Bach’s Schemelli-Gesangbuch alongside severalorgan solos, including Prelude and Fugue in C BWV 531. The result is a sparkling programme for organ and soprano in which student and master stand side by side in brotherly fashion.

Les Idées Heureuses / Geneviève SolyGraupner: chamber music
Following Kuhnau’s death, various candidates were considered for the post of new Thomascantor in Leipzig. Telemann did not want the position, Graupner was unavailable, so in the end the choice fell upon Johann Sebastian Bach. Nowadays Bach overshadows all of his contemporaries; an unjustifiable fact according to the harpsichordist Geneviève Soly. She has dedicated her career to candidate number two, Graupner, who produced a gigantic but largely unknown oeuvre in Darmstadt.

Protestantism caused immense upheaval in the sixteenth century, also in a musical sense. Nevertheless, Gregorian chant continued to play a decisive role after the Reformation, as eleven young professionals were to discover at an in-depth workshop at Fondation Royaumont. The supreme revelations to emerge from this project were the anony-mous MissasuperAustieferNoth and motets by Johann Knöfel, works which are only to be found in the Royaumont music library.

Les Muffatti & Vox Luminis /Peter Van HeyghenKeiser: Brockes Passion
Reinhard Keiser’s Brockes Passion is exactly 300 years old and a virtually forgotten work. The expressive and dramatic libretto of Brockes was a windfall for Keiser, who celebrated triumph after triumph at the Hamburg Opera, and later it was also to inspire Händel and Telemann. The Belgian ensembles Les Muffatti and Vox Luminis enter fully into this personal, richly orchestrated Passion story packed with surprises.

He has selected the most sensual dance music from across 17th century Europe, including Carlo Farina’s work from which he took the name of his ensemble. You will relish hearing this music for lords!

Stylus Phantasticus & Damien Guillon / Friederike HeumannTunder, Buxtehude, Erlebach: solo motets
The German cities constantly vied to surpass each other in (cultural) riches, and trade provided the necessary capital. Each composer on this programme featuring the celebrated countertenor Damien Guillon is linked to trade: Tunder and Buxtehude worked in Lübeck, the capital of the Hanseatic League, Erlebach studied near Bremen and Schenck was born in Amsterdam, a major rival of the German cities.

Philippe BeullensCarillon fringe
Becoming a carillonneur is quite an undertaking. Before students can play the bells they learn the art of playing the carillon at one of the two great carillon schools of the Netherlands and Flanders. Philippe Beullens currently studies in Mechelen and begins his fringe concert with Dutch music: Van Eyck, Fesch and Van den Gheyn, followed by a stylistic tour of Europe with Purcell, Frescobaldi, Händel and Fischer.
Summer School: Harry van der KampThe Orpheus of Amsterdam
In view of his comprehensive study and recording of Sweelinck’s immense vocal oeuvre – more than 150 psalms, 37 motets, 30 chansons and 15 madrigals – Harry van der Kamp can justifiably be called a true authority on Sweelinck. What’s more, he is also able to communicate his knowledge in an appealing way! In his Summer School lecture he talks in depth about the composer and his work, against the background of the Dutch music scene.

Dieterich Buxtehude wrote keyboard music in all the important genres of his time, sometimes for organ (in particular, the works described as ‘pedaliter’, ‘with pedal’), but very often without a specific instrument in mind. Luca Guglielmi, the harpsichordist from Turin, has chosen several fine preludes, toccatas, arias and pieces taken from the seven mysterious suites ‘über die Natur und Eigenschaften der Planeten’.

Maude GrattonWeckmann: keyboard music
The master of the keyboard Matthias Weckmann owned an extensive collection of manuscripts. From these we can gain a fairly precise idea of the composers that he held in especially high regard. The collection includes foreigners such as Carissimi and Chambonnières, ‘Germans’ such as Schütz and Sweelinck, and a number of works by his friend Johann Jacob Froberger. Maude Gratton brings the stylistic riches of Weckmann’s oeuvre to life on the harpsichord and the historical Ruckers virginal (1604).
Lautten Compagney & Capella Angelica / Wolfgang KatschnerBuxtehude: Membra Jesu nostri
Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu nostri is one of the most hauntingly beautiful vocal works produced in the 17th century. The Lautten Compagney Berlin performs this seven-part meditation on Christ’s suffering body with ten singers and a rich continuo. This evening concert promises to be one of the most intense and profoundly moving experiences of the entire Festival.

Scorpio Collectief / Simen Van MechelenTrauer und Tod: Weckmann, Selle, Ahle, Schütz
With such a wealth of musical splendour on display, one could almost forget that the German Baroque was marked by the Thirty Years’ War (1618-1648), not to mention a devastating plague epidemic. Simen Van Mechelen reveals this dark side with a Trauer-Sinfonia for four muted trombones. Stately intradas, pavanes and sonatas alternate with plaintive motets, two of which will be sung by the special guest: the soprano Johannette Zomer.

Henk VerhoefSweelinck en Bach on the carillon
Sweelinck and Bach may well be the luminaries inspiring this year’s Festival; however, each had their own models and sources of inspiration. The improvisatory style of Frescobaldi’s canzonas influenced virtually all subsequent keyboard composers, including Sweelinck. And Bach would not have been what he was without the groundwork laid by Johann Gottfried Walther and his chorale variations. All four composers will be featured in this carillon recital.
Summer School: Ruud PriemGerrit, the other Sweelinck
Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck had a younger brother who was a painter. In the exhibition TheWordintheGoldenAge a special place has been reserved for this Gerrit Pieters- zoon, including his imposing TriptychwithCrucifixion,in which he is supposed to have depicted his musical brother. Ruud Priem is artistic director of Museum Catharijneconvent and gives a commentary on the other Sweelinck from an art-historical perspective.

Alina RotaruFortune my foe: Sweelinck’s keyboard world
Sweelinck carefully supervised the publication of his vocal music; however, it was above all thanks to his students that his keyboard music became widely known. Alina Rotaru attracted much attention with a highly acclaimed Sweelinck recording and makes her Utrecht debut today. Her harpsichord programme features several song variations, the monumental Fantasiachromatica and a Fantazia by John Bull.

Bach Collegium Japan / Masaaki Suzuki Four times Johann: Bach’s predecessors
Masaaki Suzuki concludes his Utrecht residency by exploring Bach’s sources of inspiration. For instance we hear motets for double choir by Johann Kuhnau, Bach’s immediate predecessor at the Thomaskirche, and music by Johann Pachelbel, who was a close friend of Bach’s father Ambrosius. From the Bach family tree we encounter Johann Christoph and Johann Michael, both represented by a colourful motet.

Cappella Amsterdam & il Gardellino / Daniel Reuss J.S. Bach: Hohe Messe
In early 1733, while Saxony mourned the death of August the Strong and all music was temporarily silenced, Bach began work on his monumental Mass in B minor. Over a period of two decades the first two movements Kyrie and Gloria developed into a veritable showcase of his vocal art, the consummate blend of old and new. Daniel Reuss gives his personal interpretation with Cappella Amsterdam and the Belgian orchestra il Gardellino.

Menno van DelftBöhm on the clavichord
Menno van Delft takes advantage of the midnight hour to give a recital on the most intimate of all keyboard instruments: the clavichord. Böhm’s refined music, tautly conceived but always inventive in design, radiates a completely new lustre on this instrument that is capable of subtle nuances. The soft, whispering tone is displayed to optimal advantage in the Aula of the Academiegebouw
La Petite Bande / Sigiswald KuijkenMotets celebrating death: Scheidt, Schein, Weckmann, Sweelinck
In the Baroque era, death was not something to be feared by the faithful. Quite the contrary; after all, one’s final breath on earth signified – God being merciful – one’s first breath in heaven. La Petite Bande presents music that upholds the hope of a better life. In this context Sigiswald Kuijken draws on Sweelinck’s Cantionessacrae and Schütz’s MusikalischeExequien, among other works.

The Korean Jungeun Kim, a student at the Dutch carillon school in Amersfoort, will perform in the second carillon fringe concert. She will combine works of the two theme composers with a Vivaldi-esque harpsichord sonata by the 16th century composer Sybrandus van Noordt. Several generations after Sweelinck, Sybrandus held the post of organist of the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam.
Film: Chronik der Anna-Magdalena BachIn 1968 the film ChronikderAnna-MagdalenaBach was premièred in Utrecht in what is now known as Wolff Camera cinema.

Léon BerbenSweelinck: organ works
Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck was virtually the most renowned organist and teacher of his times. Students eagerly flocked to take lessons in Amsterdam and put their new organ expertise into practice upon returning to their homeland. In today’s programme Léon Berben focuses solely on Sweelinck: we will hear a cross-section of the organ oeuvre, including the Fantasias SwWV 261 and 270 and two chorale fantasies, performed on the 16th century pipework of the De Swart-Bätz organ in the Domkerk.

Gesualdo Consort / Harry van der KampSweelinck in Holland: Schuyt, Tollius, Padbrué, Schoonhovius, Verdonck
Sweelinck did not compose his vocal works for the church – the Calvinists were vigilantly on guard against the use of overly complex music during the service. His psalms, just like his madrigals, chansons and rimes, were intended to be sung with friends around the table. Gesualdo Consort Amsterdam lets us hear the kind of music that was enjoyed in Dutch sitting-rooms. As always, Harry van der Kamp comes up with some exquisite finds in this context.
Chelycus & Alex PotterGiovanni Rosenmüller: a German in Venice
Johann Rosenmüller was an heir to the revolution unleashed by Schütz in Germany after his trip to Italy. Once Rosenmüller himself was working in Venice, the German adapted effortlessly to his environment. Together with the violinists Veronika Skuplik and Bjarte Eike, Chelycus has invited the young counter- tenor Alex Potter to perform a selection from the unique Italian solo repertoire of Legrenzi and Strozzi, in their turn Monteverdi’s heirs.

Pierre Hantaï is a celebrated guest at the Utrecht Festival; however it is not yet general knowledge that the harpsichordist also leads a first-rate orchestra, besides enjoying a solo career. Today this will become evident, with a performance of three of Bach’ orchestral suites, also referred to as overtures on account of their imposing opening movements. This is pure light music, in the best sense of the word.

Ton KoopmanBuxtehude and Sweelinck: organ works
In Lübeck Dieterich Buxtehude had a unique organ at his disposal, with no less than fifteen registers in the pedal. Such a wealth of colours naturally invited experimentation and this can be heard in his compositions. At midnight Ton Koopman pull s outall the stops for a full measure of virtuosic stylusfantasticus: unrestrained instrumental freedom asthe ultimate expression of the Baroque.
Vox Luminis / Lionel MeunierSchütz: Musikalische Exequien
Caught up in the Thirty Years’ War, many Lutherans felt as if the end of time was drawing oppressively near. Like many of his wealthy contemporaries, Prince Heinrich von Reuss decided to prepare for his funeral down to the last detail. He had Schütz compose music to Biblical texts that still grace his coffin: theMusikalischeExequien. The youthful Vox Luminis, the ideal vocal ensemble for this repertoire, supplements the ‘Begrabnis-Missa’ with magnificent funeral motets.

Last year Arie Abbenes stepped down as city carillonneur of Utrecht, however occasionally he is overtaken by a nostalgic longing for the Dom Tower. So he just could not miss out on the Utrecht Early Music Festival and returns with music ranging from Sweelinck to Bach, including an arrangement of Bach’s Violin Partita BWV 1004. You can also take a look over his shoulder as he plays 70 meters above the ground. Fifteen daredevils will be admitted at 12.00 p.m. to ascend the tower.

The harpsichord teacher and soloist Johan Hofmann possesses a unique instrument: a copy of a so-called transposing harpsichord. This instrument has two manuals that are tuned a fourth apart from each other. Probably Sweelinck purchased a similar Ruckers instrument in Antwerp for use in Amsterdam. It’s time for both a demonstration and an explanation.

Benjamin AlardBach: trio sonatas and other organ works
Already by 1717 Bach’s keyboard skills were so extra- ordinary that, according to an anecdote, the Frenchman Louis Marchand, himself a renowned virtuoso, lost his nerve and fled town when he was invited to take on Bach in a musical duel. The youthful Frenchman Benjamin Alard plays several classics such as the organ chorale ‘Aus der Tiefe’ on the Marcussen organ in the Nicolaïkerk. The platderésistance consists of three of the celebrated, fiendishly difficult trio sonatas: the high point of Bach’s organ oeuvre.

For their visit to Utrecht they have invited along the soprano Eugénie Warnier, one of the artists in residence at the 2010 Louis Quatorze Festival. She will perform several passi-onate solo motets by the Riga-based composer Meder, the Bohemian Capricornus and Dieterich Buxtehude.

Bach called for trumpets in his suites, cantatas, oratorios and, naturally, in the Mass in B minor. A festive atmos- phere is most common; however, the instrument also adds extra lustre to more subdued works. In this fringe concert Susan Williams presents the results of her natural trumpet workshop which deals with the entire spectrum.
Compagnie Bischoff The case against Jesus: Schütz’s St Matthew Passion

Opera in the church, how scandalous!

Open your ears to a dramatic StMatthewPassion with an exclusively Berlin team and several of the greatest voices of our day.

Summer School: Kathryn CokBasso continuo in the Netherlands
Between 1600 and 1800 countless manuals appeared in the Netherlands on how to play basso continuo on the harpsichord, fortepiano or organ. The researcher and musician Kathryn Cok obtained her doctorate on this theme in 2011.

Bernard FoccroulleBach and his masters: organ works
From a very young age Johann Sebastian Bach showed extreme ambition, which was not so unusual for a boy genius brimming with ideas. His walking pilgrimage to visit Buxtehude is a well-known example of Bach’s great eagerness to learn, however, the less renowned Böhm and Bruhns also left their mark on him. The master organist Bernard Foccroulle sketches a quadriptych, including the FantasiaandFugueinGminor BWV 542 and three chorales from the Klavier-ÜbungIII.
Malgosia FiebigPure Bach
For the conclusion of the Early Music Carillon Festival today, Malgosia Fiebig will only play Bach, who many music buffs view as being the Alpha and the Omega of music, after all. The programme features his French Suite no. 2 in C minor and the harpsichord concertos BWV 1056 and 1053.

Red Herring / Patrick DeneckerDie allerbeste Zeit: Bernhard, Schütz, Schein, Bach
The subtly dissonant opening of Bach’s ‘Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit’ is almost unsurpassed in its beauty. Recorders were used for special occasions, not only here in Bach’s case, but also by Schütz and his contemporaries. The flautist Patrick Denecker has put together a refined programme of motets, cantatas and suites in which his own instrument plays a well-deserved leading role.
Les Folies Françoises / Patrick Cohën-AkenineBach: Harpsichord Concerto in D minor, Brandenburg Concerto in D major, English Suite in A minor
Les Folies Françoises put their harpsichordist Béatrice Martin fully in the spotlight with a programme that promises to be an absolute feast of familiar works. You will hear her performing solo in an English Suite, appearing as soloist in the well-known harpsichord concerto in D minor and also featured prominently in the festive Brandenburg Concerto no. 5, with its highly virtuosic harpsichord cadenza.

Gesualdo Consort / Harry van der Kamp Sweelinck and the students of Gabrieli
Sweelinck’s Rimesfrançoisesetitaliennes (1612) include arrangements of five madrigals from Italy. It is not known whether he had first-hand knowledge of these pieces or had only come across them in print, however the influence of Andrea Gabrieli, Luca Marenzio and their circle is unmistakable. This third concert given by Gesualdo Consort Amsterdam explores the influence of the Italian Renaissance madrigal on the northerners Schütz, Grabbe, Pederson, Nielsen and naturally Sweelinck himself.

The Royal Wind MusicBlokfluitconsorts uit de Nederlanden en Recorder consorts from the Netherlands and northern Germany
The Royal Wind Music is a unique consort boasting an entire range of tiny to jumbo-sized Renaissance recorders. The 13 players have previously appeared in Utrecht, then under the direction of Paul Leenhouts. The students and former students of the Amsterdam Conservatoire perform today without conductor, offering a mixture of polyphonic psalms, songs and dance suites by Scheidemann, Scheidt, Sweelinck, Van Noordt and their contemporaries.
