PROGRAMME INFORMATION
This concert focuses on three musical friends in Johannes Voorhout’s painting Allegory of Friendship – Johann Reinken, Dietrich Buxtehude and Johann Thiele, whose music revitalised Hamburg as a center of music during the Thirty Year’s War. A free city sheltered from war, Hamburg became a refuge for many musicians and through its wealth established a vibrant musical scene. This concert’s program may encourage you to ‘step into’ the intimate scene being portrayed and relish music that was inspired by the stile nuovo of Italy.
