Alehouse-Sessions, also spontanes, gemeinsames Musizieren und Improvisieren im Pub, das gibt's auch im Barock-Style. Das Ensemble "Barokksolistene" präsentiert dieses Programm im Stadttheater Fürth. Kathrin Hasselbeck hat vorab mit Barockgeiger Bjarte Eike über dieses besondere Konzert und die Musik gesprochen.
Joris en Guido proberen de vinger te krijgen achter een opwindend maar vaag genre: barokfolk. Niemand weet wat het precies inhoudt, dus iedereen gaat ermee aan de haal. Waarover de mannen zoal kletsen: Duitse pagan folk, Amerikaanse jaren-zestigfolk, Angelsaksische folk met een barok sausje. Er duiken nieuwe helden op, zoals de Franse fluitspeler François Lazarevitch en de Noorse barokviolist Bjarte Eike. Blijkt barokfolk uiteindelijk te draaien om vrolijk gezwier en peilloze melancholie, als het even kan in de pub met een pint erbij. Pusht Guido meteen de mooiste track van 2022: Music For a While van Henry Purcell. Inclusief jazzy plukbas en de gezalfde stem van Berit Norbakken.

Think classical music is boring? Guess again! Bjarte Eike and his Barokksolistene project have been making waves in the classical (well, technically Baroque, but you all know what I mean...) music scene through his audacious performances which dare to make this music fun and relevant to modern audiences, resulting in an incredibly charming fusion of baroque, folk, and jazz styles. Bjarte Eike's approach to baroque performance breathes new life into this old music tradition while staying true to its essence - an incredibly difficult feat to achieve!Join me in learning about Bjarte's journey as a baroque musician and his work with both his 2017 Alehouse Sessions and the new 2022 follow-up Playhouse Sessions to gain a new perspective (and dare I say appreciation!) on this near-ancient, yet timeless, music.Support the show
Norwegian violinist Bjarte Eike, with his group the Barokksolistene, created the Alehouse Sessions in 2017, which is now being followed up by the Playhouse Sessions. It takes inspiration from music-making scenes in 17th century England, during the times straddling Oliver Cromwell's Commonwealth and the Restoration of the Monarchy with King Charles II. Bjarte and his colleagues create a show environment that is not just about the music, but embraces high-risk creativity as well as making mistakes. He also speaks about the importance of live audiences, including how Bjarte uses booze to bring the audience into his curated alehouse environment. Bjarte and the Barokksolistene will appear in Purcell's Playhouse and The Alehouse Sessions Double Bill at the Southbank Centre on 23 September. More information can be found here.

The forthcoming album from Bjarte Eike and the Barokksolistene explores the world of Restoration London, when musicians, actors and art forms all mingled creatively in the backrooms of English pubs. Eike joins Gramophone Editor Martin Cullingford to tell us more about the recording. Gramophone Podcasts are published in association with Wigmore Hall.
The Norwegian band called Barokksolistene is out to give classical music a bad name. They're trying to drag classical music – and especially Baroque music – down to the level of folk musicians fiddling in back of a pub. We here at WNYC fully support this sort of thing. Led by violinist Bjarte Eike, the band Barokksolistene has created a project they call The Alehouse Sessions, where they merrily blend together the sounds of Baroque music, drinking songs from the British Isles, and folk fiddling from various places in Northern Europe. See if you can figure out which is which. (From the Archives, 2017.) "Hole In the Wall" (Henry Purcell - Abdelazer) "Johnny Faa/I Drew My Ship" (Scottish/Irish trad.) "Travel Set, medley" (Norway/Scotland/Norway/Denmark/Shetland Islands/America) They also performed live on Facebook for our sister station, WQXR:

Talking Classical is back for the summer and I'm delighted to share this interview with Thomas Guthrie. A wonderful opportunity to learn about what being a director entails, particularly, within music theatre. We also talked about how one manages and interacts with not only the creatives and production team but one's fellow singers - Tom is a singer himself and very much comes from directing at a performer's perspective. However, we do discuss being "on the other side of the fence", to so speak. Tom was keen, too, to advocate the importance of previews in opera, which are commonplace in other performance-based art forms such as musicals and plays. Many thanks to: Kathryn Hare at Orchid Media for arranging this interview on the day and Tom for taking the time before his concert to talk to me! Podcast published on 22 July 2019. Interview recorded on 18 July 2019 in the gardens of the Inner Temple, London. Thomas Guthrie is an innovative and award-winning British director and musician working in theatre and music to tell stories in vivid, new and direct ways. A former Jette Parker Young Artist Stage Director at the Royal Opera House in London, his revival of David McVicar’s Die Zauberflöte there won What’s On Stage Best Revival 2018. His own critically acclaimed productions of Le Nozze di Figaro and Die Zauberflöte at Longborough Festival Opera led to an invitation to direct Wagner’s Der Fliegende Holländer there in 2018 (subsequently called ‘one of the best productions at this venue I have seen’, Rupert Christiansen, Telegraph). With a reputation for stylish, unfussy, energetic, physical, theatrical and sometimes controversial work, the clarity of the storytelling, the commitment of the performers and a pre-eminence of musical values are at the heart of his productions. In his own words, ‘great theatre depends more on engaging and inspiring the imagination of the audience than on telling them what to think’ (from a recent Q and A at Princeton University). Tom also works with non-professionals of all ages and backgrounds. Some of his most thrilling projects have been in this field, including work with Streetwise Opera, the Prison Choir Project, the National Youth Choir of Great Britain, and the Royal Opera House, through whom he has inspired hundreds to connect with their inner Caruso and raise the roof. His production of Ludd and Isis, a new opera commissioned to launch the ROH’s new Production Park in Thurrock, involving a cast of hundreds, including professionals and amateurs of all ages, was acclaimed as ‘one of the Royal Opera House’s grandest achievements’ (Opera). Thomas is the founder and artistic director of the charity Music and Theatre for All, Guest Artistic Advisor to the York Early Music Festival, was Belknap Fellow at Princeton University, New Jersey in 2017, and is proud to sing and play with Bjarte Eike’s Alehouse Boys.

Clare Salaman is fascinated by the continuing debate about authenticity - or Historically Informed Practice (H.I.P) - in Early Music. How can we be sure that performances are historically accurate, and how important is it that they are? Clare talks to Catherine Mackintosh about early developments in performance practice pioneered by David Munrow and his contemporaries, and about Catherine's own work with the Academy of Ancient Music and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. The baroque violinist Bjarte Eike tells her about his unique approach with his group Barokksolistene. And Clare talks to David McGuinness about his eclectic and sometimes surprising work with Concerto Caledonia.
