Das Kleine Konzert

Das Kleine Konzert is not a singular artist or composer but rather an ensemble that specializes in performing and recording classical music, particularly from the Baroque period. The ensemble was founded by Hermann Max, a conductor and scholar with a deep interest in historically informed performance practices. They have gained recognition for their interpretations of works by lesser-known composers as well as their performances of pieces by more prominent figures such as Handel and Bach. The ensemble's recordings, including "Passions-Oratorium," "2 Kantaten," "Serenata Eroica," and "Venite Sancte Spiritus (Festive Cantatas)," showcase their commitment to bringing early music to contemporary audiences with both authenticity and musicality. Their work often involves meticulous research into original instrumentation, period techniques, and historical context, which informs their approach to performance and recording.
