The student baroque orchestra Het Kunstorkest will give two concerts this spring in Utrecht, on the 15th and 16th of March. In these concerts we will traverse the boundaries between two activities we cherish: cooking and making music. The repertoire of the Baroque era provides ample opportunities for this. Baroque composers have namely written music for royal banquets and other nobel festivities. We are going to perform pieces from this genre from Telemann, Purcell, Lully and Biber in the authentic way of playing. It will be a concert full of tasty notes, sweet harmonies and spicy solos. All come!
