The Trio Sonata Elevated To Perfection: On Saturday, 1st July, Concert four of the Canowindra Baroque Festival will be held at Perennialle Plants from 11am to 12pm.
Artistic Director and violinist Madeleine Easton is joined by two of Australia’s most lauded early music specialists Neal Peres Da Costa and Anton Baba to present a selection of Bach’s much loved Obbligato sonatas for violin, harpsichord and viola da gamba.
In a rare departure from his usual compositional style, Bach took the existing baroque trio sonata form and utterly excelled himself, producing a new and innovative example of three-part contrapuntal writing showcasing the depth of his musical expression and the apparently inexhaustible inventive resources of his genius. They are nothing short of perfection.
End Of An Era: The Canowindra Phoenix and the Canowindra Community are saddened to hear that Gleniss from the Trading Post will be closing her doors after nine years of operating her lovely store and café.
