THE ​​PARIS QUARTETS
An inspired dive into Telemann's renowned Paris Quartets. Vivid splashes of international music styles and intricate sonic dialogues burst forth in this sparkling instrumentation of traverso, violin, viola da gamba, and harpsichord - originally conceived by Telemann for Paris' superstar musicians in the 1730s.
​BROKEN COLORS
A pioneering exploration of early 17th-century Italian repertoire, experimenting with and rediscovering the vivacious and flexible nature of the traverso in combination with strings and keyboards. New color palettes emerge in varying kaleidoscopic textures in chamber works by Castello, Palestrina, Fontana, Merula, Marini, Falconieri, Picchi, Rognoni, Uccellini, and Rossi.
​
DISCRET ET DISTRAIT
Unravelling the sophistication that disguised the clashing and interlacing fusion of musical styles in eighteenth-century France. Works by Couperin, Rameau, and Telemann dance together in synthesis.
