Deliciae Ensemble
The Deliciae Ensemble specializes in Renaissance and early Baroque music, under the direction of sackbut specialist Ramon Marquès. The ensemble is committed to exploring a repertoire that is not usually performed in early music concerts today, aiming to bring lesser-known works to life with a fresh and passionate approach. With a large and versatile line-up of musicians, their performances are known for their vibrant energy, making Deliciae Ensemble an ambitious and captivating project in the field of early music.
Ensemble De Cour
Ensemble de Cour is a group of musicians who came together at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague, united by their shared passion for Early Music. The trio consists of Carolina de Andrade – soprano, Anežka Drozdová – traverso, and Ekaterina Uvarova – theorbo. Their collective focus is on exploring the rich repertoire of airs de cour from the French Baroque era, as well as works by composers of the French court. What makes their performances truly distinctive is their ability to blur the lines between composer and performer by adding original doubles (variations) to the existing pieces. This approach allows them to infuse the music with a fresh vitality while embracing the intimate, poetic atmosphere of these songs.
