Playfords- Garlic & Onions (Ger)
With this new program, The Playfords are returning to their roots. And once again draw from the infinite pool of the English Dancing Master by John and Henry Playford. From the cheerful, carefree, dreamy or even melancholic "Country Dance Tunes" the musicians have selected pieces of music that are related to the topic of onions. A topic that the ensemble feels particularly committed to, not least because it was founded in Weimar, where the famous onion market takes place every year. And so a musical menu with garlic and onions is created. Of course, not all ingredients can be revealed, but they include, among other things: recipes set to music, texts about dishes where garlic & onions are essential, plus music by the English Dancing Masters with pieces such as: Nutmigg and Ginger, Gathering Peascods, All in a Garden Green, Pepper's Black and other compositions and hits of the 17th century related to culinary and botany. The whole thing is served with a dash of improvisation, the main stylistic device of the ensemble.
