By recorder through 17th and 18th century Europe
What does a recorder have to do with a nightingale? Quite a lot – at least in the 17th and 18th centuries. Back then, musicians tried to imitate human singing and even bird calls with their instruments. Jacob van Eyck's »Engels Nachtegaeltje« shows this particularly clearly: a simple melody constantly gives rise to new variations, like a bird call that is constantly changing. The musical Grand Tour, a journey through Europe, begins with a recorder concerto by the German composer and flautist Johann Christian Schickhardt.
The next stop is England. Variations on well-known melodies were very popular there. Daniel Wright and Gottfried Finger write music that is based on a fixed bass, while new lines constantly develop above it. This sometimes sounds playful, sometimes surprising – and shows that music at that time was often intended for experimentation and further development. With Henry Purcell, this becomes a dense interplay of several voices. Finally, we travel to France. In »Pourquoy doux rossignol« by Jean-Baptiste Drouart de Bousset, the nightingale appears again. In the underlying song, the nightingale awakens a longing lover.
