18th century Polish folk music with Erik Bosgraaf & filoBarocco
Erik Bosgraaf, together with filoBarocco, goes in search of Polish traditional folk music through the eyes, or rather pen, of Georg Philipp Telemann. In the 18th century he was a court composer in Sorau (now Zary (Poland) and wrote down on a notepad all the melodies he heard in the taverns. It is very special that this gives us an idea of what that music sounded like because folk music was usually not and is written down.

How do you bring music back to life from a notepad?
In the middle of the last century, the well-known musicologist Alan Lomax traveled around the world with a recording device to record dying living musical cultures of minorities before they disappeared due to emerging globalization and mass communications. Telemann essentially did the same thing in his time, only with a notepad.
How do you bring music back to life from a notepad? Erik Bosgraaf and filoBarocco create their own version of what inspired Telemann three centuries ago, with extensive knowledge of European folk and baroque music.
