In this project, soloists Lea Suter and Juan Gonzalez Martinez, performing as the duo GlossArte, present classical concertos and symphonies with the Elbipolis Baroque Orchestra in a beautiful venue, allowing their audience to experience how fascinating it is when music, space, instruments, and musicians merge into a total work of art from the 18th century...
"A passion for regional music history and cosmopolitanism are not mutually exclusive."
This is the motto of the Hamburg Baroque Orchestra Elbipolis. Under the direction of concertmaster Jürgen Groß, the orchestra brings with it the duo GlossArte, two soloists who are praised both for their musical sensitivity and their scholarly meticulousness.
"The extensive study of historical performance practice (...) can be seen in many details, which are executed with meticulous care without interrupting the phrasing, the dramatic arc, or the musical flow."
