La Follia Austin Baroque (Instrumental Ensemble) |
|
Founded: 1980 - Austin, Texas, USA |
|
La Follia Austin Baroque (= LFABb) celebrates its 38th season as part of Austin's lively and diverse musical scene. They perform music from the 16th to 18th centuries: the time of Monteverdi, J.S. Bach, George Frideric Handel, Antonio Vivaldi, W.A. Mozart and Haydn. They perform this glorious music as these composers performed it, by using instruments and performance practices appropriate to that period. The result is a well blended, rich, spontaneous sound quite different than that produced by brighter modern instruments and 21st century performance practices. In the words of the Austin American- Statesman, La Follia is "Baroque done Right". |
