CHAMBER MUSIC

THE JOY OF MAKING MUSIC WITH FRIENDS

Baroque music on original instruments
Horus Ensemble and members of Oper Frankfurt's Ensemble

A chance to hear two unusual vocal works: Philipp Erlebach's collection of arias, which lends its name to the title of this programme, and Johann Sebastian Bach's hilarious Coffee Cantata: a father tries to forbid his daughter, Liesgen, from drinking coffee. But she is addicted to the stuff, which was all the rage in those days - what on earth is he to do?        HERE's their programme!
