The (Very) First Viennese School
Music in Vienna had its first flourishing long before Mozart. The splendid 17th-century court of the Holy Roman Emperors from Matthias to Leopold I were great music lovers who brought together composers and virtuosi to create a remarkable musical culture. The brilliant music composed for their varied court festivities offered a rich feast of sumptuous sonatas and ingenious ballets. Quicksilver’s program will feature works of Valentini, Bertali, Buonamente, Pandolfi, Kerll, Legrenzi, Fux, Muffat and Schmelzer.
