Castello Consort

Leopold's favourites

I pack my bag and in it I put... my favourite music! So did Archduke Leopold Wilhelm of Austria, who in 1647 took his entire court chapel in tow when he went to capture the throne in Brussels as the authority of the Southern Netherlands. His Austrian, German and Italian musicians would go on to inspire numerous local composers. For Leopold's playlist, which includes Marco Uccellini and Nicolaes à Kempis, the Castello Consort deploys its most imperial combo.

About the performers

The Dutch Castello Consort has a passion for music from the Renaissance and Early Baroque periods. The musicians are characterized by their lilting, expressive sound and harmonious interplay. The basis of the ensemble is formed by Elise Dupont (violin), Matthijs van der Moolen (sackbut) and Anne-Linde Visser (bass violin, cello and viola da gamba), but guest musicians join each programme. In their search for new timbres Castello Consort had a transportable pipe organ built by organ builders Reil.
