Markham’s 2022 Contemporary Music Festival is pleased to present a modern-day homage to the baroque and classical eras. In collaboration with ballet impresario Diaghilev, Stravinsky rediscovers the past in his neo-classical Pulcinella Suite based on the centuries-old commedia dell’arte character. In Kammermusik No.2, Op. 36, No.1, Hindemith revives the keyboard style of J.S. Bach in a colourful state-of-the-art work for piano and twelve instruments featuring JJ Jun Li Bui. The Ancient Airs and Dances Suite No. 3 by Respighi is based on lute pieces by Besard, Ludovico Roncalli, Santino Garsi da Parma and other anonymous composers.
