Notturno presents their first program in 2024 - An dem Fluss (by the river) - at the lovely Glebe Town Hall.

Taking a cue from the primary work in this program, the Grand Trio pour Guitare, Flûte et Alto by Joseph Kreutzer, Notturno look to presenting works from composers that lived and worked by Germany’s greatest river system, the Rhein and the Main.

Kreutzer lived most of his professional life in Düsseldorf, Ludwig van Beethoven was naturally the famous son of Bonn, Christian Gottlieb Scheidler was employed in Mainz, but was forced to flee to Frankfurt when Mainz was laid under siege, and Joseph Küffner never seemed to escape his work at the provincial centre of Würzburg.

With the obvious exception of Beethoven, all these performer composers have escaped the attention of the modern music world, and it’s our great pleasure to bring them to you for an evening concert.

Enter into the exclusive scene of the salons of Paris in the late 18th century, where wealthy, connected women hosted weekly and sometimes nightly soirees in their homes. These famous and well-respected "Salonnières" controlled the flow of philosophical, scientific and political ideas and became important patrons to some of the best known musicians in Europe. Listen to chamber music by Mozart, Porro, and Hoffmeister, fresh off the page, ink still wet, and performed to the delight of those who may not have had unfettered access to the restricted world around them, but could instead invite the artistic and academic wonders of that world into their homes. 

Notturno presents the first in their 2023 series of concerts with music by Rossini, Beethoven, Paganini and Matiegka.

An intimate concert of music by Vaclav Thomas Matiegka, Fernando Sor and Ferdinando Carulli.

Music by Wenzlaus Thomas Matiegka, Ferdinando Carulli & Fernando Sor
