Recital with Bolette Roed (recorder) und Małgorzata Sarbak (harpsichord)

Date: 05. - 05.10.2022 18.00

Bolette Roed successfully stands up for the delicate instrument recorder, on which the highest art can flourish. Together with her musical partner Małgorzata Sarbak, she demonstrates it with the example of masterly violin sonatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, which the two musicians have arranged for their instrumentation - a procedure that was completely natural in the Baroque era.
