BlockSounds recorders - The False Prophet

Overview

Experience the 17th century sounds of Thomas Ahle's spiritual concertos on themes such as this! They bring to sedate Protestant Chorales the dramatic early baroque Italian cantata style, with its contrapuntal and virtuosic instrumental writing.
Johann Rudolph Ahle (1625-1673) dedicated many compositions to this form. BlockSounds Recorder Ensemble will be joined by Maartje Sevenster, Greta Claringbould and Frank den Hartog (singers), with Ariana Odermatt (harpsichord) and Rachel Walker (gamba) on continuo to perform works by Ahle and his contemporaries Heinrich Schutz, Johann Schein, Samuel Scheidt and Johann Schmelzer.
