Chronicle of Dutch Music

tue 18 oct 2022 21:00 hrs
Composer: Giuseppe Tartini

In the Chronicle of Dutch Music, this time we look at the work of composer, organist and violinist Pieter Hellendaal, who lived from 1721 to 1799.

At age 11, he was already an organist of the Nicolaikerk in Utrecht. After hearing him perform, an admirer allowed Hellendaal to take lessons in Padua with the world-famous violinist and innovator Giuseppe Tartini (1692-1770).

Having no chance to make a living in the Netherlands, Hellendaal left for England in 1751, where he went on to have a glowing career in London and Cambridge. Hellendaal is mainly known in the Netherlands for his Concerti Grossi, of which you will hear two, opus 3 no. 1 and no. 4, as well as a violin and a cello sonata. We conclude with a dance for the wind quintet.
