Theatrum Instrumentorum

Theatrum Instrumentorum was formed in 1985 in Milan with the intention of cultivating a repertoire ranging from the Medieval to the Nineteenth century, proposing both Western European music and that which flourished within the Byzantine and Ottoman empires, a repertoire always seen in terms of historical-musical research and performance with a constant reference to early sources, integrated at times with the study of archaic but still living non – written musical traditions. Presently, it is acknowledged by both critics and public as one of the finest Italian ensembles in the European early music panorama.
The group, which performs in consort of three to ten members, has participated in many concert events both in Italy and abroad and in several international early music festival (Antwerpen, Arona, Ascona, Basle, Bologna, Cremona, Freiberg, Krakow, Locarno, Milan, Paris, Rome, Regensburg, Strasbourg, Stresa e Lago Maggiore, Venice, Urbino e Pesaro, Warszaw, Zadar a.o.). From 1989 to 1995 the ensemble frequently also worked with other vocal and instrumental groups interested in early repertoires ( Accademia Bizantina, Chiaroscuro, Coro della RTSI, Ensemble Concerto, Ensemble Elyma, Sequentia a.o.).
