Have you ever heard of the viola da gamba?
It was a stringed instrument favored by European courts in the 16th and 17th centuries, and was called the "queen among musical instruments" for its extremely delicate tone. It looks similar to a modern cello, but it has frets like a guitar, and the bow is held underhand.

Contrary to the cello, which survived in large orchestras because of its ability to produce a loud sound, the viola da gamba, which was often played in the small space of the court, unfortunately declined in the 18th century, when classical music became more civilized, and at one time became an instrument of the past, seen only in museums. It became an instrument of the past, seen only in museums for a time.
With the rise in the early 20th century of research into "playing the instrument in the style of the time, on the instrument of the time," the viola da gamba once again saw the light of day. Thanks to the researchers and performers of that time, we, as ancient instrumentalists, are now able to easily obtain instruments and scores, and we are performing in the hope of spreading awareness of this period and instrument.
In "Viola da gamba: overlapping tones," we will perform a duet of two violas da gamba. We hope you will enjoy the differences between Germany and England.

This concert is limited to 35 seats and reservations are required. We plan to sell tickets on the day of the concert, but we will stop accepting reservations as soon as the seats are full. Please contact us by phone or e-mail.
