Info for Histoires d'un Ange



One of the most peculiar features of the arts in the lavish Versailles court of the Sun King was his conservatism. His instrumental music produced a series of dances during decades, the so-called suites, of unchangeable composition, barely reminding us of old rhythms like the gallarda or the pavana which made room for novelties such as the gigue or the sarabande, installed from then on for future decades.

The gambist Marin Marais, referred to as the angel for his delecacy in comparison to the devil Forqueray, played a central role in that little but great world of short melodic stories, charming subtleties, delicate ornaments and changing repertoire - Changes that made everything remain the same. Surely De Visée, a musician like Marais from the Sun King's own chamber, accompanied him dozens of times on the theorbo and the guitar.

Our concert, a close visit to that court environment, will take the form of a large suite, initiated by a prelude in improvised style, followed by exotic pieces of a - merely apparent - goût étranger, truly as familiar as the allemande or the rondeau. To finish, like the great operas of Lully, there will be a series of imposed variations such as the chaconne and the folia, that will bring us echoes of that majestic, albeit intimate and decadent world which reached its maximum brilliance on the eve of its extinction.

Johanna Rose
After having studied cello and singing in Bremen, Johanna Rose discovers the viola da gamba thanks to Hille Perl and decides to deepen the knowledge of this instrument in Basel, with Paolo Pandolfo in the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. Later, she entered the Conservatory della Svizzera Italiana in Lugano to study with Vittorio Ghielmi while continuing at the same time her studies at the Scuola Civica in Milan with Lorenzo Ghielmi and Rodney Prada. In addition she received master classes from Sophie Watillon, Philippe Pierlot and Jordi Savall. During her time in Italy she collaborates assiduously with the dance company Virgilio Sieni.

She finishes her studies with Ventura Rico at the Conservatorio Superior of Seville with the highest qualifications.

Born in Tübingen, Johanna Rose finds her new home in the Andalusian capital and from there she travels to perform in internationally renowned venues such as the Konzerthaus in Vienna, the Laeiszhalle and the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie, the Teatros del Canal and the National Auditorium in Madrid , the Gran Teatro de Bogotá, the Quirinale of Rome, the Ponchielli Theater of Cremona, the Zaryadye Hall of Moscow or the Topcapi Palace of Istanbul, acting as a soloist and as a member of outstanding musical groups from different countries.
