Wieland Kuijken and Robert Kohnen in recital 27 February 1977

Wieland Kuijken, viola da gamba
Robert Kohnen, harpsichord

Diego Ortiz: Three recercadas
Christopher Simpson: Divisions on a ground in e minor
J. S. Bach: Sonata #2 in D
Marin Marais: Couplets on “Les Folies d’Espagne” (Pièces de viole, 1681)
Marin Marais: [unidentified encore]

The Kuijken Quartet’s booking in Los Angeles obligated them contractually not to perform any other concert in the area, so this performance forty-seven miles east of Los Angeles was presented as a “lecture/recital” in which Wieland would offer a chronological overview of viola da gamba repertoire. He spoke for about twenty minutes between pieces but, since he refused his microphone, the recording of the lecture portion was not preserved when the original analogue recordings were digitized. Recorded surreptitiously in Mabel Shaw Bridges Hall of Music, Claremont, California.

Frans Brüggen and the Minnesota Orchestra, 1 May 1985

Rameau: Suite from Dardanus (arranged by Brüggen)
J. S. Bach: Concerto for recorder and orchestra (arranged by Brüggen)
C.P.E. Bach: Symphony in D
Haydn: Symphony #88 in G

Live aircheck of a performance in St. Paul, Minnesota, during which Brüggen got a modern orchestra to sound like an eighteenth-century one. (Two weeks after this performance, he was in Sydney, Australia, getting their orchestra to do the same thing.) An interesting concert on many levels, not the least of which being Brüggen’s own transcriptions. The concerto here is an arrangement of a harpsichord concerto in which Brüggen served as both soloist and conductor. A twelve-minute interview with Brüggen discussing the motive behind these concerts, which originally aired during the intermission, is included at the end of this archive.
