Soprano and alto voice, recorder, harpsichord and lute.

KA002KA002: Bach, Cello Suites I-III, Geert Van Gele: In a program that has proved very popular with audiences, each of the first three of Bach’s six cello suites is fit to the type of recorder that brings out the suite’s special qualities. The deep-sounding bass recorder embodies the melancholy drama of Suite no. 2, while the lively sound of the alto recorder sparkles with the youthful enthusiasm of Suite no. 3. The mild timbre of the "voice flute" (a tenor recorder in D) perfectly fits the calm maturity of Suite no. 1.

KA003KA003: Quadrivium, La Cause est Amer: Medieval Love Poems from Japan and the Low Countries Asuite of five medieval Japanese love poems form the core of this unique program. Set to music for Quadrivium by Belgian composer Janpieter Biesemans, the pieces examine different states of love: the joy of newly discovered love; parting at dawn; absence of the beloved; doubting faithfulness; and rueful grief. Although Biesemans has scored the suite for western medieval instruments, his compositions capture the delicate yet intense character of Japanese traditional music. In this program Quadrivium pairs these compositions with Late-Medieval Netherlandish art songs which echo similar sentiments.
