About this concert

Although he did not want to travel to Berlin, he did receive the nephew of Frederick the Great. In 1766 the 67-year-old gamba legend Jean-Baptiste Forqueray received a visit from pretender to the throne, Frederick William. Gambiste Noémie Lenhof and harpsichordist Guillaume Haldenwang dig into the music that Frederick William might have found on his music stand, from the High Baroque gems of Forqueray to the empfindsame inventions of Graun and Schaffrath.

About the performers

Having started studying piano and cello, Noémie Lenhof fell in love with the viola da gamba. She studied this instrument with Christophe Coin, among others. She loves discovering rare repertoire and new genres. To reinvigorate the musical traditions of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, she edits and rewrites scores by means of transcriptions and continuo reconstructions, for example.

Guillaume Haldenwang is a solo harpsichordist, continuo player and vocal coach. Among his teachers are Noëlle Spieth, Pierre Hantaï and Francesco Corti. He also obtained a bachelor's degree in musicology from the Sorbonne University. In 2017, he founded the ensemble La Palatine together with Marie Théoleyre, Noémie Lenhof and Nicolas Wattinne.
