Programme:
Georg Philipp Telemann: Overture in D major TWV 55:D23, Fanfare in D major TWV 50:44 and secular cantata »Ino« TWV 20:41.
Founded in 1981, the Boston Early Music Festival (BEMF) is North America's leading early music institution. Musical directors Paul O'Dette and Stephen Stubbs, together with the BEMF Orchestra and renowned soprano Amanda Forsythe, shine a light on Telemann's dramatic cantata »Ino«: it tells an exciting story from Ovid's »Metamorphoses« and this important late work by the composer is full of scintillating drama and breathtaking virtuosity - a real insider's tip!

HOW IT WORKS
In ten venues around the market square, two concerts of 45 minutes each will take place in three time slots, while in our main festival hall the Glocke there will be three concerts. All venues have two common intervals for spontaneous encounters and thought provoking conversations with other festivalgoers. Single tickets for each concert can be booked at the standard price of 30 euros. So you can decide for yourself whether you want to attend one, two or three concerts for the festival’s opening night!
Tickets: € 30 (reduced € 24)
