When people are affected by a disaster, they often seek comfort. There is a long tradition of disaster songs: by singing together people sought support from each other.

Lotte Jensen (Professor of Dutch Cultural and Literary History at Radboud University in Nijmegen) investigates the emotional impact of disasters and the creation of a national identity in the Netherlands and came across songs about fires, floods, drought and insect plagues. Camerata Trajectina brings this tradition of the Dutch disaster song to life.

Die Camerata Trajectina ist seit fast 50 Jahren das führende Ensemble für niederländische Musik vom Mittelalter bis zum Frühbarock. Mit »Revolution!« verschiebt es seine Grenzen bis ins frühe 19. Jahrhundert.

Mit diesem Album knüpft Camerata Trajectina an die aktuellen sozialen und politischen Unruhen weltweit an. Mit einem Paukenschlag verändert die Französische Revolution das Gesicht Europas. Nieder mit den reichen Autokraten, der Bürger an die Macht!

Die Jahre um 1800 sind auch für die Niederlande eine Zeit voller Konflikte, sozialer Veränderungen und politischer Umwälzungen. Die Patrioten kämpfen gegen die Royalisten, und mit der Invasion Napoleons schließt sich ihnen eine weitere ausländische Partei an.

In the late 17th and early 18th centuries, numerous music compilations appeared that gather together handwritten copies of all sorts of repertoire. This was cheaper than printing music or purchasing printed editions. Many compilations were intended for internal or local use and often included works of composers who were locally active. Today, they also give us insight into the popularity and distribution of composers and their oeuvres during a specific period.
