Festive Opening Concert of the Blockflötenfesttage

BAROQUE EUROPE IN DANCE

To mark the festive opening, Maurice Steger welcomes you to the Erlöserkirche together with his virtuoso instrumental colleagues for his new programme Les Nations en danse. Experience a journey through the German, Italian and French Baroque with works ranging from Vivaldi to Leclair and from Falconieri to Telemann – all inspired by dance music.

It will be a celebration of joy! With this multifaceted and captivating programme, three musicians will make their debut in Bad Kissingen.

The award-winning Armenian-French Baroque violinist Chouchane Siranossian will represent France as a soloist within our Eurovision programme. The outstanding Baroque cellist and long-standing musical partner of Maurice Steger, Mauro Valli, will also present highlights on the violoncello piccolo.

In addition, the young Spanish harpsichordist Irene Roldan will be heard to impressive effect in Soler’s Fandango.

Maurice Steger will inaugurate the Blockflötenfesttage with his solo “Il Postiglione” by Veracini. Look forward to a concert that unites pure sensuality, virtuosity and extraordinary ensemble sounds.
