Info for Pachelbel: Un orage d'avril

Though the two bars of bass of a certain celebrated 'Canon' have made Pachelbel probably the most widely performed composer in the streets of the whole world, this sparkling programme invites you to make new discoveries in his oeuvre. It is built around suites (Partien) for two violins and continuo, from the Musikalische Ergötzung. The title means ‘musical delight’, and indeed one cannot but be ravished by the extraordinary sonic hedonism displayed by these works, the most important surviving testimony to the instrumental output of Pachelbel. A few songs, sung by Hans-Jörg Mammel, written for special occasions add further spice to this wonderfully free music.

Amandine Beyer, conductor

Hans-Jörg Mammel
was born and educated in Stuttgart, where he received his first singing lessons as a member of the Stuttgart Hymnus Boys‘ Choir.

Initially he studied law before entering Freiburg Music Conservtoire to study singing with Professor Werner Hollweg and Professor Ingeborg Most. He has taken part in vocal masterclasses with Barbara Schlick, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and James Wagner as well as a masterclass in authentic performance practice with Reinhard Goebel.

Hans Jörg Mammel performs as a concert singer throughout Germany and abroad; including the leading music festivals in Utrecht, Schwetzingen, Potsdam, Schleswig-Holstein, Jerusalem, Breslau, Brügge and Vienna. Renowned conductors he has worked with include Thomas Hengelbrock, Sigiswald Kuijken, Ivan Fischer, Hans Zender, Philipp Herreweghe, Pierre Cao, Ivor Bolton and Masaaki Suzuki .

In opera he has appeared as a guest artist with the Berlin State Opera „Unter den Linden“, Freiburg Theatre, and the Vienna „Festwochen“. He sang the title role in Monteverdi’s Orfeo in Iceland with considerable personal success.

He also is in great demand as a lieder singer. As well as the renowned song cycles of the Romantic period, he has particular interest in the composers of the Second Berlin School: in song recitals he has introduced the public to unknown works by Carl Friedrich Zelter, Johann Friedrich Reichardt, Johann Peter Abraham Schulz and Robert Franz. He has recorded many of these works on CD, as well as the song cycle „Die schöne Müllerin“ in the version for tenor and guitar, which received high critical acclaim.
