Lucia Swarts, a leading expert in baroque cello and professor at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague, will offer a rare opportunity to delve into baroque interpretations – and not only. She has devoted considerable time and effort to playing music from every period of musical history in a wide range of solo and chamber music settings, using instruments appropriate to the period. As well as the modern cello, she also plays the viola da spalla, baroque cello, basse de violon and cello piccolo. While early music has a special place in her affections, she does not confine herself to playing historical cello, but also performs romantic and contemporary repertoire. Feel free to bring repertoire from XVII to XIX century composers, or if you are interested in learning or improving Basso Continuo playing, you are also very welcome!
These masterclasses will not be open to the public to ensure a focused and attentive learning environment. However, a limited number of participants may be admitted by invitation from LacMus Festival.
