EUBO’s début in Andorra 26 July 2013, the 54th country in which it has performed.
It is real honour to support the cultural activities
of the European Union Baroque Orchestra. In
search of talented young Europeans to interpret
baroque pieces, this Orchestra uncovers the most
beautiful gems of our musical heritage and the
diversity of its influences and sources of inspiration.
EUBO’s hallmark is this harmony between our musical heritage and
the vigour with which it is interpreted by young performers. It is a
harmony which arouses our curiosity and stimulates our desire to
rediscover this unique heritage. It feeds our taste for music. It is also
our best asset for defending the living culture which is common to us
all. As my friend Jordi Savall aptly put it,‘Giving a voice to this legacy,
unique in its richness and precision, ...cannot heal but revives the
hope of healing’.
It is not only a self-characterization but totally true:
EUBO is like no other orchestra. Based on this, it
has continuously inspired people for nearly three
decades now. In doing so, it has deserved to be
called "Cultural Ambassador of the European
Union". And even if this title will not be awarded
any longer as from 2014 on, I am very happy that we have finally
ensured EUBO to be allowed to keep it. And I am convinced that the
audience will see, listen and subsequently understand why.
All best wishes!
Doris Pack
Chair of the Committee on Culture and
Education in the European Parliament
José Manuel Barroso
President of the European Commission
I am very proud to present the work the
European Union Baroque Orchestra has done for
years to the benefit of European music, with the
support of the EU Culture Programme.This year
the Orchestra brings together 25 young talented
musicians, from 19 EU Member States, to share
their talent and their love for baroque music.They play in 13
European countries, highlighting the outstanding richness and variety
of baroque music.
The Orchestra has greatly contributed to safeguarding, promoting
and energising this European classical musical heritage.This Orchestra
also illustrates perfectly the reason why Europe supports cultural
organisations – it is giving artists the opportunity of working together
beyond national barriers, helping them to develop international
careers and to exchange experience and to learn from each other.
As a result, the Orchestra unifies various talents to promote
European cultures. I sincerely wish the Orchestra and its members
every success in their activities and tours in 2013 and beyond.

EUROPEAN UNION BAROQUE ORCHESTRA
Cultural Ambassador for the European Union
The European Union Baroque Orchestra is like no other orchestra:
EUBO auditions and selects completely new personnel every year.
EUBO’s ephemeral existence makes its concerts special: live
performances enjoying all the technical accomplishment of the best
young baroque musicians in Europe, allied to an infectious undimmed
sense of discovery and enjoyment.
Members of EUBO come from all over the EU to gain performing
experience after their conservatoire studies, working together for a
season under the inspirational leadership of Music Director Lars Ulrik
Mortensen and some of the world’s finest baroque musicians.Ton
Koopman, Margaret Faultless, Enrico Onofri, Roy Goodman, Alexis
Kossenko, Riccardo Minasi, Edward Higginbottom and Paul Agnew all
have been guest directors in recent seasons and violinists Stefano
Montanari and Gottfried von der Goltz will direct EUBO in 2013.
Tours take the talented young orchestra to all corners of Europe –
from celebrated city concert halls, to seaside summer festivals, to
monasteries nestling in autumnal forests, and to winter celebrations
in beautiful churches. In 2013 EUBO comprises musicians from 21
different European countries who will give nearly 40 performances
across 13 European countries. And at the centre of these great arcs
of European travelling EUBO has established residencies in several
cities, notably as “orchestra-in-residence” in Echternach, Luxembourg,
where, with the support of its local partners, it is creating a new
destination for baroque music. EUBO has recently been appointed
an Associate Artist at St John’s Smith Square, which will enable the
orchestra to present a series of four concerts each year, reinforcing
St John’s position as a centre for baroque music in London.
“ Ab dem ersten instrumentalen Einsatz in die dramatische
Soloszene "Ero e Leandro" HWV 150 des 22jährigen
"italienischen" Haendel ist klar, dass ein konsequentes
Affektmusizieren den Aufführungsstil des Abends bestimmen
wird. …Jede rhythmische und dynamische Nuance wird mit
erstaunlicher instrumentaler Beherrschung ausgeführt. Beleg
einer faszinierenden, prägenden Schulung dieser jungen
Musiker in Sachen stilgerechter Barockinterpretation!”
EUBO’s touring programme is assisted by sponsorship from The
Early Music Shop and from the newly-launched EUBO Development
Trust Associate Artist programme, and the orchestra’s core activities
are supported by a significant grant from the European Commission’s
programme for “cultural ambassadors”. Flying the flag for Europe,
“EUBO is” as President José Manuel Barroso says,“a perfect symbol
of the power of integration, a subtle and potent instrument of
harmonisation between people and nations”.
Inspired performance. Real experience.
Luxemburger Wort
“ Mit Frische, Fantasie, einem erstaunlichen Reichtum an Farben
und einer geradezu überwältigenden Spielfreude präsentierten
sich die jungen Musiker. Die Zuhörer bedankten sich für das
mitreissende jugendliche Engagement mit anhaltendem Beifall
und Standing Ovations.”

“ The residency of the EUBO in Echternach and the series
of concerts “Echter’Barock” will once again make this
historic town a centre point for baroque music.
...I strongly encourage our young music students to
acquaint themselves with this music. Let us take
advantage of this positive energy and cultural
enrichment that this can offer us.”
Octavie Modert, Minister of Culture, Luxembourg
“ Echternach, the oldest town in Luxembourg and
situated at the heart of Europe, has always tried to
support the education of young people.The multitude
of associations, sports clubs and cultural institutions and
organizations in our town is a testament to this. So it is
a pleasure to be involved in this field on a European
level, and offer young and talented baroque musicians a
residency in Echternach. I am honoured to welcome the
European Union Baroque Orchestra back to Echternach
for their 2013 concerts and to wish the Orchestra
every success for this year’s tours.”
Théo Thiry, Bourgmestre, Ville d’Echternach
The agreement to
extend EUBO’s
residency in
Echternach,
Luxembourg, for a

TO BE RELEASED SOON…
EUBO 2013 and the Choir of Clare College, Cambridge,
will record the final concert of their joint touring project
on 3 September 2013, directed by Lars Ulrik Mortensen.
The choral works of this programme have a special
historical background. Handel’s spectacular Coronation
Anthems were written in 1727 for the coronation of
George II and have been performed at all British
coronations ever since. The aria Eternal Source of Light
Divine, one of the most beautiful baroque arias ever
written, opens the Birthday Ode for Queen Anne which
was composed 300 years ago in 1713.

EUBO CD:
Pure Handel
The Gramophone review
speaks for itself!
“It may not look like it, but there are
three completely different orchestras
on this disc.The European Union
Baroque Orchestra personnel changes every year and here
we have performances from concerts by the 2008, 2010
and 2011 teams. It doesn’t sound like it either, for there is
a near-total consistency of sound and approach, making a
more than usually fitting and generous celebration of this
estimable organisation’s continuing high achievement.These
are live-wire performances, technically excellent and
propelled with exactly the right degree of driving energy by
Lars Ulrik Mortensen, a director of great imagination and
musicality with a special ability to find details in the music
you maybe hadn’t registered before, draw them out and
thrill you with them.The ‘encore’ is the final aria from Il
trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno, a heart-stoppingly pure
and beautiful disavowal of life’s frivolous distractions in
which soprano Maria Keohane's rapt singing is intimate
with Huw Daniel’s sympathetic solo violin.This track is
worth your money on its own. Handel was young when he
wrote most of this music, his growing art confident, sincere
and direct.What a fine fit for these performers.”

EUBO DVD:
Joy and Sorrow
Unmasked
Although the European Union
Baroque Orchestra has, over the
years, been the subject of many
short films and documentaries and
had many of its concerts recorded
for TV and radio, this is the first time
EUBO itself has produced, in association with Estonian
Record Productions, a film for public distribution Joy and
Sorrow Unmasked (ERP6412).
An introductory film opens a window onto the workings
of the orchestra and its members on tour. This short
presentation follows the orchestra on its way to
Echternach in Luxembourg, where EUBO is “orchestra-
in-residence”, to give a public performance in the Atrium
concert hall at Trifolion as part of its Echter’Barock
series. The programme is directed from the harpsichord
by EUBO’s Music Director Lars Ulrik Mortensen and
features music by Bach, Handel, Ferrandini and Torelli.
EUBO is joined by concertmaster Huw Daniel, trumpet
soloist Sebastian Philpott and soprano Maria Keohane.
The performance was filmed ‘live’ on five cameras by
fz films (Stefan Zednik & Anette Fleming) and recorded
for sound by Studio 4 (Carl Schuurbiers).

“ To me recordings have always been the most rewarding
part of being in a choir, a recording gives you the feeling
that you are doing something permanent and so it means
a lot more.”
Gabrielle Haigh, Soprano, Clare College Choir
“ In EUBO we play together for just six months and to
record one of our performances captures our enthusiasm
and makes it last longer.“
Antonio De Sarlo,Violin, EUBO 2013
“It is a valuable thing to record for CD all the work we have
done in this period, to have a permanent memory of it and
to bring it to the enjoyment of other people.”
Andrea Angela Ravandoni,Viola, EUBO 2013
“ To see the whole group, EUBO and the Choir of Clare
College, Cambridge, performing together is quite an
impressive sight. Clare College Choir is the best choir I've

This programme called “The Lure
of London” contains two ideas:
firstly, it features a selection of
composers who were all active in
London in the 1730s and 1740s,
although only one, William Boyce,
was actually born in the city. Early
in their composing careers both
Johan Helmich Roman (from
Sweden) and Charles Avison (from
Newcastle) moved to the capital to
study, and both had contact with
Geminiani. Francesco Geminiani, a
virtuoso violinist, had come to
London (from Lucca) and
developed an active performing
and teaching career. So too had the Milanese oboist and composer
Giuseppe Baldassare Sammartini, credited with significantly advancing the
skills of wind players at this time. And, naturally in this context, we also
include music by George Frederic Handel, the ‘Saxon’ who became a
naturalised Englishman in 1727. He was undoubtedly London’s most
famous musical resident; he lived in the city from 1712 until his death in
1759 and influenced just about every sphere of concert life, from
courtly entertainment via church music to the opera house.
Usually when EUBO programmes music by Handel he is the core of
that particular programme. But the second idea in this programme is an
attempt to view Handel’s music as a starting point for musical evolution.
Most of the other composers featured played very important roles in
the stylistic development in music of the mid-18th century, a gradual
process of changed conventions and tastes leading to the Enlightenment,
the Rococo and, eventually, to the Classical style.
Giuseppe Baldassare Sammartini and his brother Giovanni Battista were
both oboe players and an important part of the musical scene in
London. It is interesting to see how their music develops during the
courses of their respective careers: initially, they write in the pure
baroque style, but at the end of their lives both of them write almost
Haydn-esque works in a completely modern musical language. It is fascinating to experience this kind of progression.
The same pattern of development applies to Boyce, who was also at
first firmly grounded in the baroque, but whose symphony in this
programme clearly features elements which point forward in time. A
similar role is played by the organist Charles Avison: we have chosen
one of his Concerti Grossi modelled on the keyboard sonatas by
Domenico Scarlatti. Avison would have known some of these works
because 30 of them had been published in London in 1738.
These sonatas clearly made an enormous impact at the time because of
their unusual keyboard textures and their radically different means of
musical expression, which indeed came to represent truly modern
music. Avison took advantage of this interest in Scarlatti’s music by
transcribing and ordering a number of the sonatas into Concerti Grossi.
He maintained many of the quirky and unpredictable effects of which
Scarlatti was so fond, but also – interestingly enough – removed some
of the weirdest and most whacky bits, thus presenting Scarlatti in a
slightly more civilised and predictable light than that which Scarlatti
himself might have envisaged. I think Avison must have felt that Scarlatti’s
music would become more generally acceptable or influential if it were
“Handel-ified” or gentrified.
The programme also features music by Francesco Geminiani, who was
the most influential Italian violinist in London, composing and publishing
extensively, and who also had an important role as a pedagogue, both
through practical teaching and through his many writings about almost
all aspects of contemporary performance practice. His “Follia” is an
arrangement of the last violin sonata by Arcangelo Corelli from his
famous Opus 5 collection, which – published on 1 January 1700 –
became the absolute standard model of sonata writing. Geminiani is
treating Corelli like Avison did Scarlatti, clothing him in a more contemporary fashion. He expands Corelli’s original two-part structure into the
full concerto grosso format by adding contrapuntal parts and by
extending the range and element of contrast in the musical language.
The Swedish composer Johan Helmich Roman travelled extensively
throughout Europe and spent a number of years in England, meeting
and playing with Geminiani and also participating in Handel’s various
ensembles and orchestras. He brought a lot of music and influences with
him back to Sweden, where his extensive activities as a composer and
organiser later earned him the epithet “the Father of Swedish music”.

“Tafelmusik” written for a banquet for the Russian Ambassador to
Stockholm, whose name was Golovin. I think you can hear something
peculiarly Scandinavian in this music. Especially in the slow movements,
there is what to me as a Scandinavian seems quite familiar as a kind of
proto-Scandinavian language, which one may characterize as a special
mixture of idyllic nostalgia and “weltschmerz”. It is a quietly glowing but
not very extrovert style of music, and I sense here a particular colour
which I have never found in music of any other nationality.
LARS ULRIK MORTENSEN
Director & harpsichord
When Lars Ulrik Mortensen began studying musicology at university, he
came across a book about English music for the virginal – he was fascinated,
and it led him to the harpsichord. It was love at first delicate note: Lars Ulrik
Mortensen decided to become a harpsichordist. He studied first in
Copenhagen and then in London, becoming harpsichordist with London
Baroque and Collegium Musicum 90. In 2004, after a long association with
the European Union Baroque Orchestra as
harpsichord tutor and guest director, Lars
Ulrik Mortensen became its Music Director.
With EUBO in 2013, he will give 23 concerts
in 11 European countries. A Financial Times
reviewer, writing after a EUBO concert, said
“Mortensen is exceptional not just for his
scholarship and virtuosity at the keyboard,
but also because he makes music with his
entire body and soul.” In his home country Lars Ulrik is the artistic director
of Concerto Copenhagen (CoCo), whose opera productions at the Royal
Theatre in Copenhagen have helped to build an international profile for the
group. In addition to his work with his own orchestras, Lars Ulrik also
performs extensively as guest director, soloist and chamber musician in
Europe, the United States, Japan and Australia, with distinguished colleagues
including Emma Kirkby, Susanne Rydén, Maria Keohane, John Holloway and
Jaap ter Linden. Lars Ulrik Mortensen has received a number of prizes,
among them the Danish Music Critics Award, the Danish Radio DMA/P2
award, and in 2007 he received Denmark’s most prestigious music award,
the Léonie Sonning Music Prize. In 2008 he was made a member of the
Royal Swedish Academy of Music. Directing Concerto Copenhagen, Lars
Ulrik’s recent recordings include the complete harpsichord concertos by JS
Bach, Haydn piano concertos (with soloist Ronald Brautigam), as well as
symphonies by Danish composers Hartmann, Kunzen and Gerson. In 2013
a CD of music by Handel was released, recorded by Lars Ulrik Mortensen
with three generations EUBO, a testament to his careful nurturing of
youthful musical talent.

HANDEL: A ROYAL CELEBRATION*
GF HANDEL (1685-1759)
Coronation Anthems (1727)
Zadok the Priest HWV 258
Let thy hand be strengthened HWV 259
Signed in April 1713, the Treaty of the Peace of Utrecht brought to an end the War of Spanish succession, a
conflict in which Britain, Austria, Portugal and the Dutch republic joined forces to prevent the unification of
France and Spain under a single monarchy; the Treaty also put an end to the centuries of Spanish occupation in
the southern Netherlands.The Treaty heralded an exceptionally long period of peace in Europe and precipitated
major celebrations in London, with the ringing of church bells and the lighting of bonfires in the street. Handel
contributed to the festivities with his grand Utrecht Te Deum and Jubilate, premiered on 7 July 1713 in Sir
Christopher Wren’s recently-completed St Paul's Cathedral in London.These canticles, performed aptly in
Utrecht by EUBO and Clare Choir on the 300th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty, are among the great
18th century choral works.They were deliberately conceived by Handel along the same lines as settings
previously used on similar state occasions by Purcell and Croft, and according to a contemporary writer “more
than a hundred musicians are going to be employed for this”.
Handel had only arrived in London in 1712, but quickly made an impression on Britain’s royal family. Queen
Anne is said to have granted him an annuity of £200 for life after hearing some of his choral music and Handel
expressed his thanks with his Ode for the Birthday of Queen Anne.Written in 1713, the Ode opens with one
of Handel’s most beautiful arias,“Eternal Source of Light Divine” which is scored for solo countertenor and
trumpet. It is a secular cantata with a libretto by Ambrose Philips which, in addition to celebrating the Queen’s
49th birthday, also marks the successful negotiations which led to the Treaty of Utrecht.This is summarised in
each of the nine sections of the cantata which conclude with the words:
The day that gave great Anne birth, who fixed a lasting peace on earth.
My heart is inditing HWV 261
Whilst it is not certain that the Ode was ever actually performed at court since Queen Anne was in poor
health, we do know that the architect Thomas Archer consulted the ailing Queen in 1713 (her death in 1714
initiated the Hanoverian Accession) about his designs for the new St John’s church in Smith Square.The story
goes that the Queen, not noted for her interest in architecture, petulantly kicked over her footstool, pointed at
its upturned shape and snapped “Like that!”The nickname ‘Queen Anne’s Footstool’ has stuck ever since.Work
on the church proceeded slowly and it was only finally completed and consecrated in 1728 after the coronation
of George II.

Birthday Ode for Queen Anne HWV 74 (1713)
One of the last acts of Queen Anne’s successor, King George I, before his death in 1727 was to make Handel a
naturalized British citizen.The Coronation Anthems were commissioned from Handel for the coronation of
George’s son, King George II, which took place on 11 October the same year. At the ceremony Let thy hand be
strengthened was played first, then Zadok the Priest, then The King shall rejoice, and finally My heart is inditing at the
coronation itself.The texts were chosen by Handel from the King James Bible.The Anthems were an instant
success, being performed on many occasions during Handel’s own lifetime and in concerts and festivals ever
since. Composed for the spacious grandeur of Westminster Abbey, the anthems show a completely extrovert
tone, ceremonial splendour, managing massed forces (apparently there were 47 singers and the orchestra is said
to have numbered 160) and vivid contrasts, rather than delicate colours.The anthems have become a traditional
part of all subsequent British coronations.
By the time that his concerti grossi Opus 3 were published in London (by John Walsh in 1734) Handel was wellestablished in England.While the solo concerto, which evolved at much the same time as the concerto grosso,
rapidly gained precedence in Italy, the concerto grosso soon became established as the favoured form in
England. Its combination of three or four fairly demanding solo parts (the concertino) with easier parts for the
body of strings (the ripieno) made it an ideal vehicle for the rapid spread of amateur music-making in England
during the 18th century. The concerto grosso Op 3 No 2 was composed long before its eventual publication
and shares a close relationship with Handel’s Brockes Passion of 1716, particularly in the first and third
movements, and elsewhere deriving inspiration from Corelli’s Concerto Grosso Op 6 No 8. But Handel did
write one strikingly original movement – the second. Over a rippling accompaniment from the cellos and
pulsating chords from the upper strings, a solo oboe rises phoenix-like with singing, expressive phrases.

Conclusion from Tafelmusik III
Furioso
Pisendel was the famous concert master of the Dresdner Hofkapelle, which was one of the leading orchestras in the first half of the 18th century. He
was the leading violinist of his time in Germany to whom renowned composers such as Vivaldi, Albinoni and Telemann dedicated pieces. And at the
same time Dresden was enjoying the flowering of its musical life during the Saxon-Polish Union (1697-1763), which began with the election of Augustus
the Strong, King of Poland and extended to the end of the Seven Years' War.
At the heart of Dresden's musical life of this period was the court chapel orchestra, the Hofkapelle, which became famous from 1733 under the
influence of conductor Johann Adolf Hasse and concertmaster Johann Georg Pisendel.
Other major musical figures at the Hofkapelle included the composers Zelenka (who also played double bass in the Dresden Orchestra), Porpora, Lotti
and Heinichen, the instrumental virtuosi Volumier,Veracini,White, and Buffardin, and the singing stars Durastanti,Tesi, and Senesino.
The congregation of so much talent truly shows that Dresden could be considered as a European music centre of excellence. And one of today’s
leading German violinists Gottfried von der Goltz can draw together talents from all over Europe in the members of EUBO to re-explore some of the
music from this wonderful period in Dresden’s history.

GOTTFRIED VON DER GOLTZ
Director & violin
Gottfried von der Goltz has made an international name for himself as a baroque
violinist and as Artistic Director of the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra, which he
directs from the violin according to 18th century practice. Having studied in
Hannover, New York and Freiburg, he first came to the attention of the specialist
musical world with successful CD recordings of long-forgotten music of the
Dresden baroque and by Bach’s sons. Nevertheless, he does not restrict himself to
a particular repertoire; his discography, ranging from the 17th century to the modern, shows instead that he is a
versatile and flexible musician. His latest CD with Freiburg Baroque Orchestra features two concertos by the
young Felix Mendelssohn (with pianist Kristian Bezuidenhout), which was released in 2011 and greeted with
excellent reviews by international music critics: "If there were only three CDs a well-informed classical music
lover was supposed to buy per year, this should be one of them" (Radio Berlin Brandenburg). In addition to his
many chamber music engagements, Gottfried von der Goltz is Artistic Director of the Norsk Barokkorkester. He
is an active teacher of baroque and modern violin at the Hochschule für Musik Freiburg, and in 2013 will direct
the European Union Baroque Orchestra for the first time.
LOREA ARANZASTI PARDO
Concertmaster
Born in Madrid in 1984, Lorea began violin and piano lessons at the age of five
and went on to study with Fernando Rius, Polina Kotliarskaya, Ana Comesaña and
Laura Diaz-Kayel. Lorea was a member of JONDE (National Youth Orchestra of
Spain) working with artists such as Fabio Biondi, Antoni Ros-Marba, Krysztoff
Penderecki and George Pelhivanian. In 2005 she was awarded a scholarship to
continue her Master studies at Texas Christian University with Curt Thompson.
Returning to Europe in 2008 and basing herself in Vienna, she started specialising
in baroque violin. During her time there, Lorea worked with baroque ensembles
such as Wiener Akademie, Capella Leopoldina, Concerto Köln and Barucco, and had masterclasses with Ulli
Engel,Thomas Fheodoroff, David Drabek, Ilia Korol and Gottfried von der Goltz, with whom she now studies in
Freiburg, Germany. In 2012 she had the opportunity to collaborate with great artists including Gottfried von der
Goltz, Anne Katharina Schreiber and Jean-Guihen Queyras as a soloist, chamber musician and orchestra player.
She was a member of EUBO 2011 and returns as a concertmaster in 2013.

The Corelli, Charisma and
Concerto concert is an all-Italian
programme. In the baroque era
national styles were very distinctive,
every country had its own musical
taste. It is quite easy to compare
Italian music to Italian shoes: quality
is very, very important and the
material has to be classy.The style is
extrovert and it is created to be
heard/seen. It was also made to
satisfy the customer's vanity with
elaborate decoration.
This year marks the 300th
anniversary of Arcangelo Corelli's
death, and it is his influence which
very clearly brings our programme
together. He was a renowned
composer and a well respected
violinist in his time, and for a long time afterwards influencing form, style
and instrumental technique not only in Rome - where he was based for
most of his life - but in most parts of Europe. He is generally credited
with the creation of the concerto. Alessandro Scarlatti and A.M.
Montanari were also based in Rome for at least a few years of their lives
and together with Corelli all three musicians were employed for shorter
or longer periods by Cardinal Ottoboni.
The next great innovator in the concerto genre after Corelli was the
Venetian Antonio Vivaldi. He made substantial contributions to musical
style, violin technique and the practice of orchestration, and he was a
pioneer of orchestral programme music.
All the composers whose music features in this concert programme
were great violinists, most of them having leading positions in different
orchestras.These concertos not only reveal their individual playing styles
and abilities on the violin, but the history of concerto writing from the
earliest examples to the mature baroque concerto.

KINGA UJSZÁSZI
Concertmaster
Hungarian violinist Kinga Ujszászi began her
musical training at the age of four. After
graduating from the Franz Liszt Music
Academy in Budapest she moved to
London to study at the Royal Academy of
Music with Igor Petrushevski. Shortly after
arriving she also started to have baroque violin lessons with Simon
Standage, later studying Historical Performance with Matthew Truscott at
RAM, and playing in masterclasses for Rachel Podger and Enrico Onofri.
In 2010 she took part in the Monteverdi Apprenticeship Scheme under
Sir John Eliot Gardiner and has been playing with his ensembles since;
she was also a participant in the Orchestra of the Age of
Enlightenment's Experience Scheme. Kinga was a member of the
European Union Baroque Orchestra in 2010, and returned to EUBO as
concertmaster for a tour with Riccardo Minasi in 2012. Kinga has toured
throughout Europe and Asia with various orchestras and chamber
groups, including the Gustav Mahler Jugendorchester and the Hungarian
Philharmonie Orchestra. She has played with the BBC National
Orchestra of Wales and has worked with Sir Colin Davis, Sir Charles
Mackerras,Trevor Pinnock and Vladimir Ashkenazy. She plays with the
International Baroque Players and also with the Wallfisch Band and the
Gabrieli Players. She leads the chamber music group Spiritato! which is
currently part of the Brighton Early Music Live scheme.They have
performed live on BBC Radio 3 and their first CD, First Act, was
released in 2012.
Donations from regular supporters have made it possible
for the EUBO Development Trust to establish a series of
prizes to be awarded at internationally-recognised Early
Music competitions.The Trust has also been able to
support the production of a CD and a DVD by EUBO and
to help other emerging early music ensembles, such as the
International Baroque Players, produce their first CD
recordings.The Trust is supporting a number of training
initiatives to encourage increased participation by young
performers including courses in Prague and Freiburg and is
working with the orchestra to identify areas where baroque music
education is less well developed such as Lithuania and Romania.To this end
the Trust has made it possible, for example, for a promising young Romanian
oboe student to study at the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra’s summer Akademie
as well as for a small ensemble from EUBO 2011 to attend the Akademie.The
Trust continues to support EUBO’s training programme for young baroque
musicians, as well as the concerts at St John’s Smith Square, London through the
Associate Artist Appeal. All this would not be possible without the donations,
both small and large, received from individuals as well as from Trusts and
Foundations.

Why did you choose the Bach Orchestral Suites? It has been quite some time since EUBO programmed the
first two Bach orchestral suites, even though they have appeared quite regularly since the foundation of the
orchestra. Most baroque players would probably agree that Bach’s suites are one of the most important areas of
our repertoire.
Flute Anne Freitag
These works still amaze me with their freshness. I must have been involved in performances of the b minor suite
at least 50 times, but every time I play it I discover new details and surprising features; the more you play this
music, the greater the range of possibilities.There is also a pedagogical aspect to it: we should indeed expect any
specialised baroque musician to have formed a relationship with this refined musical language, complex
construction and technical virtuosity as well as with its emotional and musical effect, and to have found answers
to the very many questions that this music puts to each and every performer.
JS BACH (1685-1750)
So what’s the French connection? We sometimes forget an important feature of the Bach suites, namely that
they have their true origin in the French style. As Bach was always open to whichever influence he could put to
artistic and practical use in his own compositions, I thought it was interesting to pair him with native French
music in the second half of the programme. Admittedly, these particular French works were both composed
after Bach wrote his suites, but the relationship is still very audible.
Director & harpsichord Lars Ulrik Mortensen
Concertmaster Bojan Čičić
Suite No 1 in C BWV 1066
Ouverture – Courante – Gavotte I, II – Forlane – Menuett I, II – Bourrée I, II
– Passepied I, II
JS BACH
Suite No 2 in B minor BWV 1067
Ouverture – Rondeau – Sarabande – Bourrées I & II – Polonaise & Double
– Menuett – Badinerie
Interval
JM LECLAIR (1697-1764)
Flute Concerto in C Op 7 No 3
Allegro ma non troppo – Adagio – Allegro assai
JPh RAMEAU (1683-1764)
Suite from Acanthe & Céphise
Entrée des Suivants du Génie – Air gracieux – Air très vif – Gavotte – Loure –
Musette en rondeau – Air pour les Génies et les Fées – Tambourins
Leclair was the most outstanding French violinist of his time and, in a way, as much a model for the French violin
language as Bach was for violin composition in Germany. His two opuses of violin concertos constitute a refined
and complete version of the concerto manner translated into French.We chose the particular concerto in this
programme, Opus 7 No 3, because Leclair himself states that it – unlike the rest of the collection – can be
played on the flute, so this forms a very nice link with the second Bach suite before the interval.
What should the listener listen out for in French music that makes it particularly different from Italian music,
for example? A somewhat over-simplified answer could be: in Italian music the important thing is what you say;
in French music what matters most is how you say it. Because of the very particular rhetorical conventions of
French baroque music, the whole challenge of integrating millions of little details, ornaments or typical turns of
phrase or harmony into a greater whole needs a completely different balance or approach compared to Italian
music. I would recommend trying to listen beyond or below the surface in order to feel the glow, the
understated refinement and the “bon goût”.
The Rameau suite that EUBO will perform is an edition you have made; why in particular did you choose the
Acanthe et Céphise suite for EUBO? Rameau wrote more than 25 operas, and of course making up suites
from selected dance or instrumental movements from these is nothing new. But I like researching a little bit
further into operas that are less well-known than the ones from which we traditionally select such suites, and
Acanthe et Céphise - even though it is in many respects one of Rameau’s grandest creations - is still relatively
unknown. I also find that in this opera we experience a different and maybe more mature composer, a Rameau
illustrating or inviting gesture in a different way from what was the norm in his earlier works (Acanthe et
Céphise is quite late in his production). After all, Rameau surely was anything but a static composer. He kept
renewing himself, he kept refining or rethinking previously held ideas, and that is one of the reasons why this
music for me has such a lot of freshness and immediacy. I think that suits the EUBO-players and our style of
approach very well.
Do you think it will be difficult for the players to change from playing Bach in the first half to the French style
of performing in the second half? I think that when we do the programme in that order, starting with Bach and
then going into the native French style, it actually becomes a more organic affair than if we had played, for
instance, Italian music in the first half and then gone on to a very different language in the second half.There is
an internal logic or progression in the programme order which makes it a little easier for us, but hopefully even
more exciting for the listener.
