Symphoniae
To celebrate our 10-year anniversary, we are recording a new CD with our favourite repertoire: 17th-century music from the Low Countries. Please help us finance this recording through Voordekunst:
Intro
We love exploring different kinds of sound colours and other ways of expressing ourselves through 17th-century music. In the very beginning, we focused mainly on Italian early baroque music in a small chamber music setting. Recently, we started broadening our repertoire, which resulted in expanding the size of our ensemble. For each programme, we are looking for a specific sound (and instrumentation) that we find most convincing for that repertoire.
Fantastissimus!
Our debut CD is was released in 2023. With an exciting programme combining the new music by Martijn Padding with chamber music from the 17th century. Buy it directly from us (shipping within The Netherlands included), or contact us for international orders.
"They surprise with a kind of baroque rubato, combined with freedom of tempi [...]. Thus, the music breathes, as a living organism, that passionately -but peacefully- prevails."

Our organ project
In 2020, we finalised a very exciting project: the investment in a new pipe organ, built after 17th-century examples. The instrument is unique in its transportability, while no compromises are made in the sound and build quality. Our Committee of Recommendation includes the experts Paul McCreesh, Ton Koopman, Jos van Veldhoven and Liuwe Tamminga.
