Programme Note
Baroque, contemporary, rock, improvisation… expect everything from Eric Vloeimans and Brighton Philharmonic Strings.
One of Europe’s biggest jazz stars, the brilliant Dutch musician Eric Vloeimans is a trumpeter, composer, record producer and songwriter extraordinaire; he builds timbral textures of the modern, early, traditional and experimental, all underpinned by the poetic beauty of his sound. Fresh from commissions from Holland Baroque and the Calefax Reed Quintet, Eric premieres his new work Innermission for BPO, as well as a fresh jazz take on Purcell’s immortal Dido and Aeneas: the tragic Trojan love story of Dido, Queen of Carthage.
Kicking off with Desyatnikov’s gritty, sexy reimagining of Ukrainian folksong, we’ll also hear Johann Pachelbel’s Canon in D – one of Baroque’s most beloved works – and a sassy dance number from Les Indes galantes, a 1735 ballet héroïque by Frenchman Jean-Philippe Rameau.
