Event programme
Parisian elegance and splendour
Under the influence of King Louis XIV, who was a great supporter of the arts, French Baroque instrumental music developed in a sign of grandeur, splendor and elegance. The concert program includes suites by two French composers who were masters and virtuosos on their instruments. Pierre Danican Philidor and Marin Marais followed the ideals of French Baroque music. Telemann also tested the influence of French music in the opening Prelude of the Paris Quartet. Pierre Danican Philidor was a member of a highly respected French musical dynasty. Like many of his musical relatives, he played the oboe and was a member of several orchestras at the royal court. Marain Marais became famous early on as a virtuoso on the viola da gamba. At the age of nineteen, he played at the Paris Opera, and later shone as a chamber musician at the court of Louis XIV. Under the mentorship of Lully, he began composing and in 1692 published six suites for two melodic instruments and basso continuo.
