The Leap Ensemble Presents: A Hapsburg House Party 

About

Join The Leap Ensemble for an evening of musical playtime drawn from music composed for Viennese salons, with works by composers like Martines, Mozart, Scarlatti, Handel, and Pittonini.

Austria in the 1700s was the birthplace of the classical music we still love today, but it wasn't created in the aristocratic palaces of Vienna. It was brought to life in weekly jam sessions hosted by Marianna Martines, a student of Haydn, a friend to Mozart, and a composer herself. Every Sunday musicians and composers came to her salons to inspire and compete with one another, improvising new musical ideas and showing off their latest creations.
