SOLD OUT Tues 7 Jan 630pm: Gryphon Baryton Trio | Main Ridge Estate
Tuesday 7 January, 630pm
Main Ridge Estate, 80 William Rd, Red Hill
Wine and food available for purchase prior to the performance
A 60 minute performance
This concert is a rare chance to hear some of the fascinating chamber works by Joseph Haydn for baryton, performed with their intended instrumentation. The magnificent baryton, an instrument similar to a bass viol but with an extra course of metal sympathetic strings, was an instrument much favoured by Haydn's employer, Prince Nikolaus Esterhazy. Haydn composed over 130 works for it, the majority of which taking the form of Divertimenti for baryton, viola and ‘cello-the so-called 'Baryton Trios' in which the baryton plays a critical role. These delightful works are full of invention and colour, with the unique combination of low instruments creating unique and beautiful sonority. We also include a baryton trio by Haydn’s colleague at the Esterhazy court, Joseph Burgksteiner. These trios have hitherto not been performable in the Antipodes in their original form, but the commission of a new baryton in 2023 enables the Gryphon Baryton Trio to share this very special music as it was intended.

Joseph Haydn: Baryton Trio in B minor Hob XI: 96
