SUMMARY:Bremen Musikfest – Davide Penitente
DESCRIPTION:When in 1785 the Wiener Tonkünstlersozietät\, a pension fund for the widows and orphans of professional musicians\, asked Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for a choral work for their benefit concerts\, the composer used a trick that was quite common at the time: he placed the Kyrie and Gloria of his unfinished mass in c -Moll with additionally composed arias and an underlaid Italian text for the cantata “Davide penitente” (The penitent David). It is possible that Mozart induced a reform of Emperor Joseph II\, which prohibited church music at that time\, to simply present his grandiose mass music torso in a new textual garb. At the world premiere in the Burgtheater in Vienna\, Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 80 was also heard\, with delicious effects\, rhythmic sophistication and a truly eccentric finale that exemplifies the composer’s originality. As the leading Scottish original sound ensemble\, John Butt and his Dunedin Consort stand for a slim and transparent sound full of structural details. They promise to lend the solemnity of these two seldom played masterpieces of the Viennese classic a new shine with high tension – a lasting experience!

SUMMARY:Dido's Ghost | Edinburgh International Festival
DESCRIPTION:‘Remember me\, but ah! Forget my fate’ sings Dido at the end of Purcell’s opera. But life isn’t always quite so straightforward\, and some memories have a destiny of their own. Set several years after the Carthaginian queen’s death\, Dido’s Ghost finds Dido’s sister Anna abandoned on the shores of Aeneas’s new kingdom\, igniting a murderous jealously in Aeneas’s wife Lavinia – and as events play out\, its characters confront a past that refuses to fade. \nCo-commissioned by Dunedin Consort\, the Barbican Centre\, Buxton International Festival\, Edinburgh International Festival\, Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra & Chorale\, and Mahogany Opera\, Dido’s Ghost reframes\, illuminates and expands Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas\, which is performed in its entirety as a flashback within Wallen’s drama. Performed on period instruments\, Dido’s Ghost bridges the gap between worlds\, as past blurs into present and memory becomes emotion in this ambitious new commission.

SUMMARY:Bach & Buxtehude
DESCRIPTION:JS Bach scholars have generally agreed that the Concerto in A major\, BWV1055\, actually started life as a concerto for oboe d’amore – an alto instrument lying midway between the oboe and cor anglais – before Bach reworked it for harpsichord\, which is the version more often heard. Bach served as the Director of Music for Leopold\, Prince of Anhalt-Köthen from 1717-1723. The two principal violinists in Prince Leopold’s orchestra\, Joseph Speiss and Martin Friedrich Marcus\, had both been recruited from Berlin and the ‘Double Concerto’ was presumably written with these two talented players in mind. BWV82 was written in 1727 for the Feast of the Purification of the Virgin Mary. Its anonymous libretto focuses on Simeon\, who\, after seeing the infant Jesus at the temple\, has no more need for earthly life.

SUMMARY:Matthew Passion | Online Broadcast
DESCRIPTION:Over the years\, our celebrated interpretation of Bach’s Matthew Passion has earned us five-star reviews\, coveted awards and taken us around the world. It has become one of the cornerstones of our season. But in 2020\, for the first time in our history\, the concert halls fell silent and our annual performances were cancelled. It was a strange and sombre Easter without Bach’s music for comfort.   \n This year\, we return Perth Concert Hall for a streamed performance of one of Bach’s most heart-rending works\, a piece that feels more powerful now than ever. With that silent Easter behind us\, we look forward to rejoicing once more in Bach’s glorious music\, and its message of hope\, togetherness and salvation.

SUMMARY:A Lover's Discourse — postponed
DESCRIPTION:Nicholas Mulroy director & tenor\nPippa Murphy composer \n‘I encounter millions of bodies in my life; of these millions\, I may desire some hundreds; but of these hundreds\, I love only once…’\n— Roland Barthes  \nIn love\, as in music\, we find ourselves in a multitude of hazy\, transcendental states\, neither here nor there. ‘We are enchanted\, bewitched: we are in the realm of sleep\, without sleeping; we are within the voluptuous infantilism of sleepiness: this is the moment for telling stories.’ So says Roland Barthes in his sweeping and ecstatic examination of human love\, A Lover’s Discourse. Join us for a unique and transformative experience\, as we pair Barthes’ vivid recitations with madrigals by Monteverdi\, Rore and Gesualdo\, in a compelling multimedia performance bound together by Pippa Murphy’s evocative new score.   \nPlease note there will be no interval.

SUMMARY:Messiah — Cancelled
DESCRIPTION:Dunedin Consort’s annual Messiah has become a staple of the festive season — Christmas just wouldn’t be complete without it. And in this year of all years\, we all need the joy\, splendour and sheer exhilaration that only Messiah can bring. While we are sorry to announce that our live performance plans for Edinburgh and Glasgow can no longer go ahead\, we are thrilled to be partnering with Horsecross Arts to present a streamed performance from Perth Concert Hall. \nJoin us from the comfort of your own home (perhaps with a glass of wine and mince pie in hand!) as John Butt\, soloists Mhairi Lawson\, Jess Dandy\, Anthony Gregory and Robert Davies\, and our lithe orchestra and chorus treat us to a Messiah with a difference. Tickets cost just £10 per household\, and the stream will be available for 30 days. \nAnd for younger viewers\, we hope you will tune in to our Children’s Messiah — specially crafted with little ears in mind! — on Tuesday 22nd December. Guided by Mr Handel himself\, we’ll be whizzing through some of his greatest hits\, with plenty of fun and games along the way. This stream will be available free of charge for 30 days.

SUMMARY:How Lonely Sits the City | Online Broadcast
DESCRIPTION:Nicholas Mulroy director \nIn times of isolation we find ourselves longing for community — for acts of kindness\, understanding\, and generosity of spirit. Few texts seem more fitting just now than the opening of the Lamentations of Jeremiah: ‘How lonely sits the city that was full of people! How like a widow has she become\, she who was great among the nations!’  \nAs we come to terms with a prolonged period of social isolation\, we reflect upon these themes in music from the Renaissance to the present day. From Orlande de Lassus’s exquisite five-part Lamentations and William Byrd’s haunting Ne irascaris Domine and Civitas sancti tui\, to the contemporary voices of James MacMillan and Cecilia McDowall. A new work from Ninfea Crutwell-Reade\, specially commissioned for our a cappella consort during the period of lockdown\, completes the programme.

SUMMARY:Nature's Voice | Online Broadcast
DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, music has mirrored nature. From delicate birdsong to rushing rivers\, and the shifting sounds of the seasons to the rustle of the undergrowth\, this intimate programme for soprano and orchestra celebrates nature’s voice in music\, tracing its presence through some of the pillars of the Baroque repertoire. \nTelemann’s orchestral ‘Water Music’ suite (Hamburger Ebb’ und Fluth\, TWV 55:C3) is juxtaposed with one of Antonio Vivaldi’s best-loved concertos\, alongside exquisite vocal works by G.F. Handel and Alessandro Scarlatti\, all set alight by the voice of soprano Rowan Pierce.

SUMMARY:Lammermuir Festival – Purcell: Songes & Ayres
DESCRIPTION:  \nSoprano Mhairi Lawson joins us for an intimate programme of song\, a genre that Purcell firmly made his own. With his flair for drama and extraordinary gift for bringing words to life\, Purcell poured many of his most creative ideas into his songs — each of them miniature masterpieces\, equally as captivating as anything he would compose for the stage. They are paired here with some of his most exquisite and intricately wrought instrumental works\, shining examples of Baroque dialogue at its most eloquent.

SUMMARY:Bach: The Brandenburgs
DESCRIPTION:So named because they were dedicated to the Margrave of Brandenburg in 1721\, Bach’s six Brandenburg Concertos contain some of the most sumptuous and virtuosic instrumental writing in all of his output. Each is composed for a different line-up\, from the intimacy of concertos 3 and 6\, composed for strings alone\, to the bombastic splendour of Nos. 1 and 2\, with their blazing trumpet and horns. Join us as we explore these astonishing instrumental jewels\, presented in their entirety (in Edinburgh and Madrid)\, alongside two of Bach’s best-loved alto cantatas with soloist Meg Bragle (in Philadelphia and Washington)\, and with our wind soloists taking centre stage (in Perth and Glasgow). \n‘For all the debates on historically informed performance\, the most persuasive aspect of this concert was the sheer sense of joy’ — The Times \n
