About

Continuing its work with young artists, Coro has the pleasure of releasing 'Auf Wiener Art' - the second recording by Le Jardin Secret, winners of both the first prize and audience prize at the Early Music Network Young Artists Competition, 2007.

Following on from their debut album, 'Musique Pour Mazarin!', 'Auf Wiener Art' is a fascinating pot-pourri of musical gems from the Habsburg Imperial Court. The house of Habsburg and its court lived and breathed music. Encouraged by the infectious musical appetites of the Italophile imperial family and, in particular, Leopold I (the so-called “Musikkaiser”), the court was fed a daily diet rich in vocal and instrumental music for stage and church.

Given its vast geographic spread, the Austrian empire encompassed many cultures, elements of which enrich the music of this time. This, as well as the wave of Italian composers imported to service the imperial court, create a multi-faceted musical legacy which is both spirited and fresh.

Le Jardin Secret:
- Elizabeth Dobbin, soprano
- Sofie Vanden Eynde, theorbo and baroque guitar
- David Blunden, harpsichord and organ
- Romina Lischka, viola da gamba
- Marian Minnen, baroque cello and basse de violon
