Wer bei diesem frühbarocken Programm und der Energie des Ensembles nicht mittanzt und genießt, dem ist nicht mehr zu helfen. Große Freude, purer Wahnsinn!

L'Arpeggiata faszinieren, amüsieren, rühren zu Tränen - und das alles in nicht einmal zwei Stunden.

La Venexiana turns Wigmore Hall into a palace somewhere in 17th-century Italy for a delightful lunchtime recital. 

Pour les quinze ans de leur collaboration, le contre-ténor et l'ensemble de Christina Pluhar explorent tout le potentiel émotionnel des mélodies baroques européennes autour d'un programme porté sur l'amour.

The superstar countertenor revisit the site of one of their early successes, with hits from Monteverdi and the court of Louis XIII. It makes for an extraordinary evening.

Le contre-ténor et ses complices ont livré un concert de haut vol, s'aventurant aussi bien dans des danses endiablées que dans des pages bouleversantes...

While maybe not for the musical puritans, this was the perfect showcase for an exceptional group of musicians to demonstrate their formidable technical and interpretative talents and to respectfully give some new vitality to the magical works of Purcell.

Ensemble Correspondances give a virtuoso display of polychoral music from Marc-Antoine Charpentier and his Italian contemporaries.

If you like your Purcell spiced up with some jazz improvisation and Middle-Eastern flavours, Philippe Jaroussky and L’Arpeggiata’s gig was for you. 

Though they play Baroque music, the ensemble L’Arpeggiata is more like a jazz band than a traditional orchestra. Anchored by a continuo (rhythm section?) led by artistic director and theorbist Christina Pluhar, they are joined by various other instrumentalists, singers, and even dancers, fitting each of their projects.
