ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

Lodovico Giustini’s sonatas for pianoforte op. 1, known as the oldest piano compositions (1732), were published in Florence, where the piano was invented around 1700. Early pianos, built in Cristofori’s style, were much favoured, especially by royal families, principally in Spain and Portugal. Giustini’s sonatas, composed in Pistoia near Florence, were dedicated to the brother of the Portuguese king who was fond of this new invention: the pianoforte.

Before Scarlatti’s arrival to Spain, where he wrote most of his keyboard sonatas, the composer stayed in Lisbon for more than seven years. During that time he became friends with Carlos Seixas, who was organist for the Portuguese Royal Chapel. For today’s program, I will employ an English square piano from the second half of the eighteenth century: Zumpe 1769. Numerous English square pianos, invented by Zumpe during the 1760s, came to Spain and Portugal during the Classical and Early Romantic eras.

Locatie

Muziek Museum Zutphen

Het Geelvinck Muziek Museum opende op 30 juni 2017 zijn deuren in Huis De Wildeman (voorheen Museum Henriëtte Polak), pal in de historische binnenstad van Zutphen. Dit imposante patriciërshuis met zijn eind 18e eeuwse klassieke gevel, stamt uit de late middeleeuwen. De stijlkamers met historische fortepiano's ademen de sfeer van Beethoven's tijd. Aan deze iconische componist, die volgens sommigen in Zutphen werd geboren, is de tentoonstelling op de 1e verdieping gewijd. Op de 2e verdieping – bij het open depot met restauratieatelier – bevindt zich een schuilkapel uit 1628. Regelmatig vinden er concerten op historische piano's uit de 18e en 19e eeuw plaats. In november 2019 heeft het Muziek Museum de deuren gesloten. Meer over de achtergrond hiervan kunt u lezen op https://muziekmuseumzutphen.nl. U vindt daar ook de:
