The Telemann Ensemble performing Baroque music
to
Delight the senses and feed the mind!
 In the late Baroque period, roughly 1680-1750, small instrumental groups normally consisted of two or three melody instruments accompanied by the “basso continuo” which is the defining feature of baroque style and comprised harpsichord and/or cello or viola da gamba. Our pieces by Telemann, Vivaldi and Williams present a variety of such combinations, respectively German (with a strong Polish influence), Italian and English. The trio by Seig which concludes the first half of our programme is a joyous piece inspired by black African music. The textures may be African but the composer has used typically European compositional processes to sustain the interest over its relatively long time-frame of about 13 minutes.
