Vivaldi and His Time

Concert by the University of Osnabrück Early Music Ensemble

The University of Osnabrück Early Music Ensemble, conducted by Stefan Koim, invites you to a concert of Italian Baroque music on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, in the auditorium of Osnabrück Castle. 

The concert focuses on works by Antonio Vivaldi, whose lively musical language and virtuosic instrumental compositions continue to shape the image of 18th-century Italian music to this day. The program is complemented by compositions by his contemporaries Giuseppe Sammartini and Evaristo Felice Dall’Abaco, which bring the stylistic diversity of this era to life.

The concert begins at 7:30 p.m. Admission is free.

Ein Detailreiches Bild zeigt mehrere Geigen, die von Händen gehalten und gespielt werden. Der Fokus liegt auf den Geigenkörpern und den Händen, die mit den Bögen die Saiten berühren. Die Geigen haben eine tiefbraune, glänzende Lackierung mit feinen Maserungen. Die Hände der Musiker sind hellhäutig und umschließen die Geigen fest. Im Hintergrund sind verschwommene Umrisse von Personen und grünen Blättern erkennbar, was auf eine möglicherweise öffentliche oder eine Outdoor-Aufführung hindeutet. Das Bild vermittelt ein Gefühl von Harmonie, Zusammenarbeit und der Schönheit des Geigenspiels.
