AUGUST 06-07 AOÛT

06 AOÛT 10H 30 $SOMMET BACH IL’Ensemble Caprice offre l’intégrale de la musique de chambre de J.S. Bach : 16 oeuvres pour deux ou trois musiciens jouées lors de quatre concerts s’étalant sur deux jours. Ces compositions intimistes redéfinissent le concept même de la musique de chambre.

PROGRAMMESonate pour flûte et clavecin obligé en mi bémol majeur, BWV 1031Sonate pour viole de gambe et clavecin obligé en sol majeur, BWV 1027Sonate pour violon et clavecin obligé en fa mineur, BWV 1018Sonate pour flûte et basse continue en ut majeur, BWV 1033

06 AOÛT 11H35BACH, BRIÈVEMENTRestez dans votre place entre nos spectacles Sommet Bach: soprano et spécialiste de la musique ancienne Ann Monoyios présente un discours de 20 minutes sur la vie, l’époque et les influences de Bach.

06 AOÛT MIDI 30 $SOMMET BACH IIPROGRAMMESonate pour violon et clavecin obligé en ut mineur, BWV 1017Sonate pour viole de gambe et clavecin obligé en sol mineur, BWV 1029Sonate pour flûte et basse continue en mi mineur, BWV 1034Sonate pour flûte, violon et basse continue en ut mineur, BWV 1079Sonate pour violon et clavecin obligé en la majeur, BWV 1015Trio Sonate pour 2 flûtes et basse continue en sol majeur, BWV 1039

06 AOÛT 15H 30 $WHAT MAKES IT GREAT? DEUXIÈME CONCERTO BRANDEBOURGEOIS DE BACHSans conteste, la musique de Bach est d’une grande et rare complexité. Pendant plus d’un demi-siècle ses compositions finement ouvragées, savantes, ont sombré dans un oubli presque complet alors que ses contemporains exploraient d’autres moyens d’expression. Et pourtant, aujourd’hui, des pièces comme les Concertos brandebourgeois figurent parmi les piliers de la musique classique. Que s’est-il produit? Qu’avons-nous découvert chez Bach qui, à son époque, suscitait aussi peu d’engouement? Venez-vous joindre à Rob Kapilow et à l’Ensemble Caprice aux côtés desquels nous découvrirons la complexe beauté du Deuxième Concerto brandebourgeois.

The Properties Group a généreusement parrainé ce concert.

07 AOÛT 10H 30 $SOMMET BACH IIIPROGRAMMESonate pour violon et clavecin obligé en si mineur, BWV 1014Sonate pour flûte et basse continue en mi majeur, BWV 10355Sonate pour viole de gambe et clavecin obligé en ré majeur, BWV 1028Sonate pour violon et clavecin obligé en mi majeur, BWV 1016

07 AOÛT 19H 35 $SOIRÉE DE CLÔTURE : LES CONCERTOS BRANDEBOURGEOISEn mettant à l’affiche les plus fameux concertos baroques, on conclura en beauté le festival. Cette interprétation vraiment novatrice de l’Ensemble Caprice entremêle les préludes, Opus.87, de Chostakovitch, préludes qui ont subi la profonde influence de Bach mais qui expriment leur propre langage. Ce périple musical nous conduit de l’Allemagne du 18e siècle à la Russie du 20e siècle et une alchimie extraordinaire se crée entre l’atmosphère baroque et l’univers contemporain. Saisissant!

PROGRAMMEShostakovich Prélude et fugue no 5 en ré majeur, op 87Bach Concerto brandenbourgeois no 4 en sol majeur, BWV 1049Shostakovich Prélude et fugue no 11 en si bémol majeur, op 87Bach Concerto brandenbourgeois no 6 en si bémol majeur, BWV 1051Shostakovich Prélude et fugue no 2 en la mineur, op 87Bach Concerto brandenbourgeois no 5 en ré majeur, BWV 1050Shostakovich Prélude et fugue no 18 en fa mineur, op 87Johann Sebastian majeur, BWV 1047Shostakovich Prélude et fugue no 4 en mi mineur, op 87Bach Concerto brandenbourgeois no 3 en sol majeur, BWV 1048Shostakovich Prélude et fugue no 7 en la majeur, op 87Bach Concerto brandenbourgeois no 1 en fa majeur, BWV 1046Shostakovich Prélude et fugue no 7 en la majeur, op 87
