DEEDS CALENDAR: Musical Belongings IV: lautten compagney BERLIN meets Caribbean rock and English baroque – Humboldt Forum | until 15.09.2024
In the MUSICAL BELONGINGS series at the Humboldt Forum, lautten compagney BERLIN welcomes a legend of Caribbean Punta Rock: Pen Cayetano & members of the Garifuna Collective from Belize. Their music meets the English ballad opera Polly by Johann Christoph Pepusch and John Gay from 1729. The sequel to the successful play The Beggar’s Opera is set in an imaginary Caribbean with numerous “exotic” characters that a colorful London society encounters there. New and old Punta songs are arranged for this program for old European instruments and typical Punta percussion instruments, including turtle shells, maracas, shells and Garifuna drums. The event begins on September 12 and will run until September 15, 2024.
