| The award-winning ensemble Hoor Barock is releasing a full album featuring the music of Antonio Vivaldi.The pride of SkÃ¥ne, Hoor Barock, is the small baroque orchestra that has made a name for itself with it’s passionate interpretations of baroque music. The group has been praised for it’s virtuosity, sensitivity, stylistic brilliance, and joyful, playful approach to performance. Hoor Barock has four critically acclaimed recordings behind them and won a Swedish Grammy in 2020 together with Dan Laurin.In the new production “Vivaldi in the North,” Hoor Barock’s temperament and musicianship flourish in Antonio Vivaldi’s beautiful and vibrant music. The album includes solo concertos and ensemble works with varying moods and characters. Featured soloists are recorder player Emelie Roos, baroque violinist Hannah Tibell, and lutenist Dohyo Sol.Some of the works on the album deserve special mention – the flute concerto “Il Gran Mogol” was discovered only fifteen years ago and is here recorded for the first time with a recorder instead of a transverse flute. The violin concerto in G major and the string symphony in B minor have a special Swedish (Scanian) connection, as the only surviving manuscripts are preserved at Lund University Library. Hoor Barock has previously recorded works from this nearby library and is keen to highlight the rich historical cultural heritage found there.Vivaldi’s music was present in the Nordic countries during the Baroque era and continues to inspire us today. The ever-present drama in Vivaldi’s music-whether depicting proud autumn storms, mirror-like icy landscapes, or exuberant dancing joy-can be found in the Nordic nature just as much as in the Mediterranean world of Venice.
