Named after the Spanish word meaning “conversation,” the ensemble views music as an ongoing dialogue and exchange of ideas and emotions with their audience.
Their Harmoniemusik-inspired instrumentation, featuring two clarinets, two horns, and two bassoons, creates a distinctive and captivating experience that is sure to enchant their listeners. They often perform in historic monuments and public gardens, recreating the festive atmosphere of the past for a broader audience.
The members of the ensemble are early music professionals who studied at the Royal Conservatory of Music in The Hague, The Netherlands: Pablo Traine, Francisco Javier Sánchez, Janire de Paz, Carolina Guiducci, Sergio Sánchez and William Gough. They have actively collaborated with some of the most famous and renowned ensembles of the European early music scene, such as Theresia Orchestra, Orchestra of the 18th Century, Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra, Orchestra of the Age of the Enlightenment, Irish Baroque Orquestra, Bremen Barokorchester, The Netherlands Bach Society, and Les Siecles, among others.
Since they started the group in October of 2022 they have been pioneers in being the first early music ensemble to take part in festivals such as Arcen Kasteeltuinen or Muziek Zomer in The Netherlands. They have recently been accepted for the International Young Artist Presentation 2024 in Antwerp, a program for emerging artists in the field of Early Music.
Furthermore, they have received a grant from the Keep an Eye Foundation to develop their interdisciplinary project The Magic Flute: Animating Mozart. A collaboration with visual artist Dax Niesten in which she illustrates with animation the story of the famous opera by Mozart while the ensemble performs live a selection of arias from a historical arrangement for wind sextet by Johannes Stumpf.
