Info for Graupner : Intégrale des sonates pour violon et clavecin

Das Duo AKOYA (die Geigerin Naomi Dumas und die Cembalistin Caitlyn Koester) gibt sein Debüt bei ATMA Classique mit einer Aufnahme, die den Violin- und Cembalosonaten von Christoph Graupner gewidmet ist. Nach seinem Tod im Jahr 1760 fast in Vergessenheit geraten, erlebt Graupners Musik in den letzten Jahren dank der Entdeckung seiner Kompositionen an der Universität Darmstadt in Deutschland eine Renaissance. Unter seinen 36 Kammer- und Klaviersonaten bietet AKOYA zusammen mit Amanda Keesmaat, Barockcello, eine beeindruckende Auswahl, darunter einige, die zum ersten Mal eingespielt werden.

Naomi Dumas, Barockvioline

Naomi Dumas
Baroque violinist Naomi Dumas has appeared throughout North America and Europe as a soloist, chamber musician and as a member of ensembles including Il Pomo d’Oro, Le Concert de la Loge, Arion Baroque Orchestra, and the Helsinki Baroque Orchestra. She is a graduate of the Historical Performance program of The Juilliard School and the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, where she had the privilege of studying with Cynthia Roberts, Rachel Podger, and Amandine Beyer. She was recently selected as a finalist at the International Music Competition of the Loire Valley and was appointed principal violin of Les Ornements, formerly the Orchestre de Chambre de Colmar, in 2022. Naomi particularly enjoys the rhetorical qualities and emotional integrity of early repertoires, and strives to let the music speak to the audience with transparency and openness. Originally from Quebec, Canada, Naomi currently lives in Basel, Switzerland.
