Bremer Barockorchester
The Bremen Baroque Orchestra was founded in 2015 and works under the artistic direction of Colombian born cellist Néstor Fabián Cortés Garzón.
Not long ago, the press reviewed the Bremen Baroque Orchestra as follows: “The orchestra supported the prevailing musical expression, hurled rockets of pure joie de vivre on the stage or offered a soft musical cushion… In all the Allegro parts of this concert, you had the impression that the Bremen Baroque Orchestra rocked the Kurfürstensaal. Here, the groove which this Baroque music was radiating was so strong that the listeners were immediately carried away. Against this background, rather than “Baroque Orchestra”, its actual name should have been “Baroque Band”. (Süddeutsche Zeitung, 2019).

This is our first video of a wonderful concert we had with Giovanni Sollima in March this year! Such a highlight.
We will have a journey though different epochs of the violoncello! So there is much more to come in the next weeks.❤️
Stay tuned, and in tuning .. (with the "ancien accord", like in the video?)
