From now on our ensemble will perform under a new name.
SUONO D'ORO
Some of us are no longer based in Munich or never were.
Our repertoire has mixed a lot in the ten years we have been working together and ranges from the Baroque to the early Romantic.
The new name offers us the freedom to present our sound and our playing culture without being tied to a specific place.
Johann Zach’s Stabat Mater is one ambitious work and shows the composer’s mastery. His Missa solemnis is progressive and original, heading towards Romanticism. In addition to the new orchestral techniques, the great dramatic expressiveness and rhythmic treatment are striking. The Baroque Orchestra Munich under the founding conductor and flutist Dorothea Seel as well as the vocal ensemble Novocanto, deliver excellent performances. Truly exciting!
Supersonic pizzicato, Remy Frank.
Johann Zach’s inventive and rhetoric music gets plenty of character in these excellent recording made by Barocksolisten München. The recorded sound is extremely well balanced, pleasingly full, yet perfectly transparent at the same time.

For Dorothea Seel and her ensemble it does not suffice to produce historically informed music, they also look for new aspects, thus showing that the last word in performing Bach’s music is far from being said.
