Gryphon Baryton Trio – Resonate and Ring
Katie Yap, viola
Josephine Vains, cello
Chamber music of elegance, wit and fun from the 18th century and today for baryton trio.
A rare chance to hear some of the fascinating chamber works for baryton live, performed with their intended instrumentation. The magnificent baryton, similar to a bass viol but with an extra course of metal sympathetic strings, was an extraordinary instrument much favoured by Haydn’s longtime employer, Prince Esterhazy. Haydn composed over 130 works for it – the so-called ‘Baryton Trios’; in which the baryton plays a critical role.
They are full of invention, wit and colour, with the unique combination of low instruments creating unique and beautiful sonority. Hear music by Haydn and his colleague Burgksteiner; alongside a premiere by Brooke Green.
