Here, we hear some Baroque works by some of these siblings. In the first half of Johann Sebastian’s life, Berlin was not yet the centre that it ultimately became, but connections to Berlin existed, which was even more so the case with his sons.
The son who ultimately became the most important was Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach – who was in fact more famous than his father during his lifetime. We hear his expressive Harpsichord Concerto in E major. We also hear symphonies by Wilhelm Friedemann Bach, who composed in his father’s Baroque style, and Johann Christian Bach, who considered his father old-fashioned and preferred to write in a style known as galant rococo.
In addition, we hear a colourful opera overture by Carl Heinrich Graun, who was Germany’s most important composer of Italian opera at the time, and a harpsichord concerto by Georg Benda, who was from Bohemia in what is now the Czech Republic. Both Graun and Benda are included in the so-called Berlin School, which also included the Bach sons, led by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach.
Orpheus Baroque is led here by Italian Francesco Corti, an award-winning Baroque specialist who works with the world’s top ensembles, including Les Musiciens du Louvre, Bach Collegium Japan and Les Talens Lyriques. In 2021, he led Handel’s Agrippina at Drottningholm Palace Theatre. Artistic directors of Orpheus Baroque are the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic’s solo cellist, Johannes Rostamo, as well as concertmaster and Baroque violinist Elin Gabrielsson, a member, among other ensembles, of Italian Europa Galante.

At this performance, we hear the ensemble in a format that is closer to chamber music during the vignette Orpheus Treasure Trove.
Naples has played an important role historically not only for the region’s music, but also for western music more broadly. Early on – in the sixteenth century – music conservatories run by the church were based here, and Naples was referred to as Europe’s music conservatory. The city is primarily associated with dazzling songs and opera, but here, we establish familiarity with instrumental music by leading seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Neapolitan composers.
Critically acclaimed ensemble Orpheus Baroque regularly works with prominent guests from the international Baroque music scene. Artistic director is the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic’s solo cellist, Johannes Rostamo, as well as concertmaster and Baroque violinist Elin Gabrielsson, a member, among other ensembles, of Italian Europa Galante.

A symphony by Haydn concludes this programme, but the emphasis is on music by Finnish-Swedish Bernhard Crusell, who was born in Nystad, Finland in 1775 and died in Stockholm in 1838. Crusell was a clarinettist and is primarily associated with works for clarinet – such as the clarinet concertos and quartets.
Here, we hear the third clarinet concerto and first clarinet quartet with none other than Italian Lorenzo Coppola – one of Europe’s authorities in early music. He has performed with the most prominent ensembles in older repertoires, including Les Arts Florissants, Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century and the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra. Coppola has also guest-performed with Orpheus Baroque before, at a concert in 2021 that can be heard on Konserthuset Play.
