About the performers
For Lidewij van der Voort, Baroque music is about honest affect, never about cheap effect. Glowing declamation, natural phrasing and colour are for her the basic ingredients of honest and uncompromising music-making at the highest level. Lidewij van der Voort grew up with Baroque music. While studying modern violin in Amsterdam, it became clear to her that early music would also become her artistic future. Her specialisation began with Sigiswald Kuijken in Brussels and with violinists such as John Holloway, Enrico Gatti and Roy Goodman. She was co-founder of the Dutch baroque orchestra Holland Baroque, where she was leader for years and won several prizes. At the moment she focuses mainly on the 17th century, the golden age of the violin, with her newly founded ensemble FLUX, with her duo with lutenist Fred Jacobs, and with ensembles such as Vox Luminis.
The Dutch lutenist Fred Jacobs is a member of ensembles such as The Gabrieli Consort and the Monteverdi Ensemble of the Bavarian State Opera in Munich. He performs with Johanette Zomer and Charles Daniels, among others, and gives recitals with viola da gamba player Mieneke van der Velden and baroque violinist Lidewij van der Voort. For the British label Metronome he recorded Robert de Visée’s oeuvre for theorbo. Jacobs teaches lute and theorbo at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. His research, publications and lectures focus on various aspects of the lute and theorbo in the seventeenth century.
