Don Quixote in Hamburg
Ouvertures – Georg Philipp Telemann, Johann Mattheson, Francesco Bartolomeo Conti
Elbipolis Baroque Orchestra
At the end of the Cervantes year the young Elbipolis Baroque Orchestra presents its debut record „Don Quixote in Hamburg“.
The musicians of Elbipolis met in different formations of early music like the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin or the Baroque orchestra Bremen. Their repertoire is mainly dedicated to the music of Hamburg of the 17th and 18th centuries.
The famous Quixote of Cervantes, of course, has never been to Hamburg but in the amusing liner notes Quixote and Sancho Pansa start to this adventure and meet some different composers of Hamburg. In fact G. Ph. Telemann, Johann Mattheson and the Italian composer Francesco Bartolomeo Conti have written different overtures to the entertainingly adventures of Don Quixote.
The members of Elbipolis Baroque Orchestra play this music lively and energetic, in the suite of Conti the sound of the strings is supported by a recorder and percussion.
