Events

Johann Sebastian Bach

  • Johann Sebastian Bach has been the Thomaskantor and musical director of the Thomaskirche in Leipzig since May 30, 1723 . In 1729 he also took over the management of the Collegium musicum founded by Georg Philipp Telemann in 1701 . Through the additional management of the college, he considerably expands his scope in Leipzig's musical life. With this student ensemble he performs German and Italian instrumental and vocal music, including his own concerts that he wrote in Weimar and Köthen, which he will later transform into harpsichord concerts with up to four soloists. The concerts take place once or twice a week in the Zimmermannisches Caffee-Hauß (destroyed in the war in 1943) or in the associated garden.
  • March 29 : Johann Sebastian Bach's St. Matthew Passion (BWV 244), whose premiere took place on 11 April 1727 performing at the St. Thomas Church in Leipzig for the first time in the revised version of Bach, which is considered as valid today and most performances The work is based. It is available in a fair copy from the second half of the 1730s, which is considered to be Bach's most beautiful and meticulous autograph and which indicates the great importance that he himself attached to the work. The score now belongs to the Berlin State Library and is one of its most precious original manuscripts.

georg Friedrich Handel

  • Georg Friedrich Handel , who founded the “second opera academy” together with Johann Jacob Heidegger in 1729 , is the musical director of this successor organization to the Royal Academy of Music .
  • Handel has lived in London at 25 Brook Street since July / August 1723 and lived here on two floors until his death in 1759. Almost all works created since 1723 are composed in this house. Preparations for the performances often take place in the Handel dining room .

Domenico Scarlatti

  • Domenico Scarlatti is the Portuguese princess Maria Bárbara de Bragança , whom he met at the court of the pious and extravagant King John V in Lisbon and taught as a music teacher, after her marriage to the Spanish heir to the throne Don Fernando of Asturias (from 1746 King Ferdinand VI. ) followed to Spain. From October 1730 to May 16, 1733, the Alcázares Reales in Seville was his permanent residence and place of work. Then the farm moves north to the area around Madrid , where, depending on the season, it alternates between the castles of Buen Retiro , El Pardo , Aranjuez , La Granja and El Escorial . Scarlatti is probably still in the "private" service of Maria Bárbara and seems to devote himself almost exclusively to the harpsichord and the composition of his sonatas.

Georg Philipp Telemann

  • Georg Philipp Telemann has been Cantor Johannei and Director Musices of the city of Hamburg since 1721 , one of the most respected musical offices in Germany. In this position Telemann undertook to compose two cantatas per week and one passion per year, but in later years he would fall back on earlier works for his cantatas. He also composes numerous pieces of music for private and public occasions, such as memorial days and weddings.
  • In addition, Telemann has taken over the management of the Hamburg Opera at Gänsemarkt for an annual salary of 300 thalers , rebuilds the Collegium musicum, which was founded by Matthias Weckmann in 1660 but has since ceased to perform, and also takes on a position as Kapellmeister for the court Margraves of Bayreuth . From time to time he delivers instrumental music and an opera there every year.

Antonio Vivaldi

  • Antonio Vivaldi has been musical director of the Teatro Sant'Angelo in his hometown of Venice since 1726 . There, both as a composer and as a violin virtuoso, he became a living legend and a “pilgrimage destination” for many musicians from all over Europe.

Other biographical events

  • Antonio Lotti is appointed to the prestigious office of Maestro di Cappella in St. Mark's Church in Venice on April 2nd . This makes Lotti a later successor to Claudio Monteverdi . He prevailed against competitors Antonio Pollarolo , Nicola Porpora and Andrea Porta.
  • Carl Theodorus Pachelbel moves to Charleston , South Carolina and a year later he marries Hannah Atkins Poivetin, with whom he has a son, Charles. In 1736/37 he gave several concerts of vocal and instrumental music in New York City and Charleston. He is one of the co-founders of a North American musical life that is based on European cultural tradition.
