Kontrapunktus Presents "The Londoners"
Kontrapunktus makes its long awaited return to St. Andrew's this January with its new, glorious production, "THE LONDONERS: An English Baroque Salute," which features the riveting and timeless music of Charles Avison, William Boyce, Henry Purcell, Carl Friedrich Abel, and Goerge Frideric Handel. This program also features native, iconic Irish and Scottish folk music from that period.
THE LONDONERS: An English Baroque Salute spotlights the brilliant artistry of composers who elevated the London music scene in the late 17th and early 18th century through the formation of a unique, scintillating sound that was a fusion of Italian and German musical styles. This sound would evolve into what became known as Galant music, which attracted young protégés like Mozart to London, and became the precursor for Classical music.
