PANEL - Influences of research on the market

At the core of any historically informed performance, research brings new repertoires to the lights of the stage, and broadens our perspective on performance practice, composers’ lives and the circumstances of artistic creation in the past. On the other end of the spectrum, market economy shapes our lives and influences what we can, or cannot perform, impacting the artistic diversity and the risk-taking of creators…or does it work the other way round?

concert - b'rock orchestra

Soprano Jeanine De Bique – the perfect partner in pleasure for the adventurous B’Rock – enchants us with a programme full of metamorphoses, penned by the three Baroque heroes: Lully, Purcell and Handel. Excerpts from the operas Dido and Aeneas, Alcina, The Fairy Queen, Amadis and others recount tales of (un)happy loves and their divine consequences, for better or for worse. B’Rock Orchestra and their Vocal Consort bring us musical storytelling at its best.

Tickets can be purchased at registration.
