Cohda Kwartet

Four enthusiastic, professional recorder players met each other in 2017 and have since formed a close-knit quartet which radiates their enjoyment of the art to their audience. Their repertoire spans the entire history of written music. Besides performing works by established composers, the performers don’t shy away from programming delightful easy listening music and modern compositions. They combine respectfully approached historically informed performance practice with an open mind towards modern sensibilities. During their concerts you can also expect explanations and stories about the music being performed that are both enjoyable and illuminating.

Le Concert d'Apollon

​The idea to assemble a group of friends, and excellent musicians who were interested in French orchestral repertoire that had not yet been recorded, was the fundamental concept to the formation of this new ensemble. Not only has this music ever been recorded or performed, there are no modern or complete editions since so much of this music survived only in a reduced form (missing much of the harmonic structure).

Le Concert d’Apollon aims to produce new and more complete editions of this grandiose repertoire. We wish to realize this music in a historically informed manner while still creating a unique and exciting performance atmosphere by introducing the dichotomy between a small ensemble and an orchestral setting (trios vs. tous). Exclusive and fresh transcriptions are included in our repertoire.
