Baroque Music Montana presents “The Baryton: Trios of Haydn”. The Baryton was Haydn’s favorite instrument for which to compose, having written over 100 compositions for this fretted and multi-stringed instrument. Musicians perform on historic period instruments, including baryton, violin, viola, and cello, while sharing entertaining tales, trios of Haydn, and beautiful modern compositions for variety in this one hour program. This program celebrates the Valencia Baryton Projects newly released Naxos recording of this repertoire, which garnered listing as All Music’s 2021 Favorite Classical Instrumental Albums and was featured on Gramophone’s Top 20 UK Classical Chart. Based in Spain, the Valencia Baryton Project has toured across the Americas as well as Europe, with their work hailed by Strad Magazine as well as radio and publications worldwide. The group is joined by Bozeman violinist Carrie Krause for this program.
