Marc Coppey
Kenneth Weiss

Sharing the same passion for chamber music, Marc Coppey and Kenneth Weiss took pleasure in reviving the great works as well as some rare pages of this music genre since their last encounter.  For this concert they call on four major composers from the Baroque period: Jean Barrière, Jean-Féry Rebel, Antonio Vivaldi and Johann Sebastian Bach.

In a piece from the first of the four books that Barrière dedicates to cello sonatas and basso continuo, to Bach Suites, including excerpts of the Dance Symphony from Rebel’s Elements, transcribed for harpsichord solo by Kenneth Weiss, this program, that demands of the performers great virtuosity and extreme sensitivity, will offer us treasures of a prolific musical century, carrier of so many new energies.Sharing the same passion for chamber music, Marc Coppey and Kenneth Weiss took pleasure in reviving the great works as well as some rare pages of this music genre since their last encounter.  For this concert they call on four major composers from the Baroque period: Jean Barrière, Jean-Féry Rebel, Antonio Vivaldi and Johann Sebastian Bach.
