Il Gusto Barocco

German Baroque Ensemble

Il Gusto Barocco is an ensemble that specializes in the performance of Baroque music, particularly focusing on historically informed performance practices. The group was founded by the German conductor and harpsichordist Jörg Halubek. They have been recognized for their interpretations of Baroque operas and instrumental music, often bringing a fresh perspective to well-known works as well as rediscovering lesser-known pieces of the era. The ensemble collaborates with various soloists and has made several recordings that have been well-received in the realm of classical music. Their repertoire spans a wide range of Baroque composers, and they aim to recreate the soundscapes of the 17th and 18th centuries with authenticity and expressive depth.
