'Orchestrating the Trio' : music by Haydn, J.C. Bach, and Cimarosa
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Barefoot Chamber Concerts ("an enterprise noted for both its quality and informality" - San Francisco Classical Voice) presents really good music in the right acoustic and without the formality of most classical music events.
Barefoot is delighted to be able to present a very special event: the Costanoan Trio with Kathleen Kraft, flute, playing an unusual concert of orchestral music by Haydn, J.C. Bach, and Cimarosa.
Representing "the best of emerging early music talent" (Early Music America), the Costanoan Trio explores the piano trio repertoire of the late 18th and early 19th centuries on period instruments and recreates the world of domestic music-making in intimate concert spaces. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, founding members Derek Tam (fortepiano), Cynthia Black (violin), and Frederic Rosselet (cello) played together in various ensembles before deciding to become a trio. Their guest for this program, Kathleen Kraft, studied flute and 18th-century music at the Royal Conservatory in Holland and became part of the revival of the Early Music movement in the Bay Area music scene in the 1970s when there were but few players. Across the years, she has taken part in the movement's phenomenal growth, performing with the American Bach Soloists, Philharmonia Baroque, Magnificat, and many other orchestras and chamber ensembles. One of the area's most revered teachers, Kraft has served for 30 years as instructor and coach at the San Francisco Early Music Society's baroque workshop.
This program features the fabulous early classical/gallant style of music so often neglected in modern classical programming, a style that combines the new vocabulary, and new formal techniques of galanterie with the excitement and freshness of the late baroque.
There will, of course, be the usual Barefoot snax. The resonant wooden acoustic of St. Mark's Parish Hall will provide the perfect place for this concert. Don't miss this unique occasion!
