In the Baroque era, the natural trumpet and the cornett held a prominent place in sacred and ceremonial music. Their brilliance and virtuosity made them emblematic instruments of major celebrations. In the works by Vivaldi, Handel, Albinoni and Greene, their luminous timbres enter into a lively dialogue with voice and organ, in a distinctly Baroque play of contrast and ornamentation. This programme highlights the full range of these historical instruments and their special affinity with the human voice.
