Jakarta Sinfonietta : "MUSIC AT VERSAILLES" lead by Giovani Biga

Jakarta Sinfonietta & Giovani Biga

"MUSIC AT VERSAILLES"

The first concert of 2021 Second Half Season will be a special experience for our audiences, since French baroque orchestral music is hardly performed in Indonesia, especially as a full concert progrom. French instrumental music distinguished itself from the Italian primarily by the instruments it favoured, namely the lute, theorbo, harpsichord, viola da gamba and flute, but also by its focus on musical declamation, ornamentation and eloquent restraint.

France was governed by art-loving Monarchs from Louis XIII through to Marie-Antoinette, who understood the social and political importance of the Arts and actively promoted them. To Louis XIV, power and the Arts were linked, whereas Marie-Antoinette’s love of music was apolitical. The role of music changed over the centuries, as well as its forms, instruments, interpretation and reception.

Program:

  • Prelude from “Te Deum” (M.A. Charpentier)

  • Orchestra Suite from “Les bourgeois gentilhomme” (J.B. Lully)
