News

A new collaboration of ensemble Vox Præterita with the soprano Gabriela Wodiczko-Mosur brought forth a new program for voice and early brass instruments, featuring comforting, spiritual music full of hope, selected from vocal and instrumental repertoire of the early Baroque. In the transitional phase between the Renaissance and the Baroque, humanism - taking a closer look at human experience and well-being - was central to art and philosophy. The Baroque elevated this focus to a new level with new artistic forms of expression, such as the expression of deeply felt emotions and the appreciation of virtuosity.

Find out more about the new program, “Harmonia Animæ”, on the ensemble’s website.

“Just as man cannot live without dreams, he cannot live without hope. If dreams reflect the past, hope summons the future.”

Inspiration

I believe culture to be the highest achievement of civilisation. Interaction with art serves the betterment of our life as a society, and proximity of beauty allows to individually reconnect with our values through meaningful experiences.

Motivation

Passionate about 18th-century French repertoire and German choral settings, I am always curious to learn more about Early Music.
