Historically informed performance practice is no longer a topic reserved for musicologists, archive “moles” and those with a passion for period instruments; it is a term now familiar to most listeners of music. In recent decades, the Concerto Köln ensemble has made a huge contribution to this shift in attitudes by presenting interpretations of works that are true to their music-historical roots and which demonstrate a high level of expertise and emotional intelligence alongside interpretational dedication to detail. The world-class ensemble now presents the scope of its achievements over the past ten years on the 12 CDs in this edition, thereby providing a snapshot of the close collaboration between Concerto Köln and the Berlin Classics label.

Concerto Köln is one of the most famous ensembles for historically informed performance practice.

The box set includes the best albums of the cooperation between Berlin Classics and Concerto Köln.

Bonus: DVD with a previously unpublished live concert of The Four Seasons.
