Baroque world music – Four musicians, a Sicilian, a Catalan, a South Tyrolean of Italian origin (with Slovenian roots) and a Viennese, meet in Vienna to play together out of love for baroque and traditional music from southern Italy. Coming from all points of the compass, like the ‘Rosa dei Venti – the wind rose’, the sounds of violin, cello and harpsichord mingle in an intimate embrace with the intense songs of southern Italian world music. With the programme ‘ROSA DEI VENTI’, the Ensemble Fiori Musicali Austria draws on the rich musical tradition of southern Italy, which has its roots in various cultures. The programme focuses on serenades and love songs in Griko, a language that combines ancient Greek, Byzantine-Greek and Italian elements and is spoken in the Magna Graecia region of southern Italy’s Apulia (Salento) and occasionally in Sicily. The songs are part of the traditional music of the Greek colony in Italy. The songs from Sicily are touching with their rough tenderness and are reminiscent of the most diverse oriental and Arabic influences from the Mediterranean region. The programme combines music from the southern Italian Renaissance and Baroque periods with folk songs. Different variations of the tarantella add a dance-like note to the programme.
