ENSEMBLES

Musica Universalis

The singers of this newly founded ensemble come from leading ensembles in the field of Renaissance Music: Huelgas, Douce Memoire, Penalosa… The ensemble was founded as an initiative of the Goldberg Stiftung thus reaching one more of its aims: instigating the foundation of Slow Listening ensembles.

The first concert of this ensemble was a big success in January 2010 in Tours with Et Ecce Terrae Motus, the most recent project of the foundation. It will be given in its final form during MaerzMusik in Berlin.
