... Per saperne di piùThe Orfeo Orchestra Budapest, also known as Orfeo Zenekar, is a Hungarian period-instrument ensemble that specializes in the performance of Baroque and Classical music. Founded and directed by György Vashegyi, the orchestra has gained recognition for its authentic interpretations of 17th and 18th-century music. They often collaborate with the Purcell Choir, also founded by Vashegyi, to perform larger choral-orchestral works. The ensemble's repertoire includes pieces by well-known composers such as Handel, Rameau, and Haydn, as well as lesser-known figures from the Baroque and Classical periods. Their performances are characterized by a historically informed approach to playing style, instrumentation, and performance practice. The Orfeo Orchestra Budapest has recorded several albums that have been well-received for their scholarly approach and musicality.
