Hanover, Germany’s vibrant early music scene will be reflected in this evening of lustrous baroque chamber music by Rameau, JS and CPE Bach, Marais and Leclair with our two special guests from Germany. Harpsichordist Bernward Lohr is director of Hanover’s Musica Alta Ripa, one of Germany’s most active period instrument ensembles, and baroque violinist Anne Röhrig is leader of the Hannoversche Hofkapelle, one of Germany’s premier baroque orchestras.

Bernward Lohr and Anne Röhrig are both professors at music conservatories in both Hanover and in Nuremburg, Germany. Their more than 30 recordings have garnered numerous awards including the Diapason Dòr, the Cannes Classical Award, the German Recording Critics’ Prize, and several times the Echo Klassik. Both were awarded the 2002 Music Award of Lower Saxony.
