From the Archives
From La Follia’s February 28, 2025 performance of Dietrich Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu nostri: a performance of the third cantata: Ad manus (To the hands).
From La Follia’s “Mentors of Mozart” concert January 31, 2025. Anton Nel on fortepiano is joined by Stephen Redfield on violin and Eric Taeyang Mun in this spirited performance of Haydn’s trio 27 in C major.
An excerpt from our October 2024 “Cast Your Vote!” concert where we anticipated the November US election by “voting” on various Baroque performance issues. This issue was “Do you prefer high and slow arias or fast and furious ones?”
Fortunately Ms. Gitanjali Mathur, assisted by cellist Sydney ZumMallen, with Stephen Redfield on violin, Marcus McGuff on traverso and Keith Womer on harpsichord, can ably demonstrate the options. Enjoy!
PS Apologies to Mr. Trump and Ms. Harris for the wardrobe choices! (Also Ms. ZumMallen is wearing an Ivanka Trump brand blouse, and Mr. McGuff is sporting his Donald Trump brand shirt.)
Such fun!
Gitanjali Mathur and Steven Brennfleck bring down the house in a rousing performance of “Happy We” from Handel’s Acis and Galatea.
Anton Nel and director Keith Womer perform Bach's Concerto in C major for two harpsichords as part of the annual "Herd of Harpsichords concert.

At Home with the Herd of Harpsichords
Keith Womer, director of La Follia Austin Baroque, recorded a 30 minute video piece for KMFA Classical 89.5’s FaceBook Live series “Sound Ideas”, a youth outreach project. In it, he explores three of the harpsichords used in La Follia’s popular “Herd of Harpsichords” concerts, currently corralled at his home in Round Rock, Texas.
Learn what makes a harpsichord different than a piano, what makes Italian, French, and Franco-Flemish harpsichords different from one another, and what gives all harpsichords their special, magical sound.
