CONCERTO AVENTINO was founded by Jakub Kydlíček as instrumental ensemble. In the forefront of the ensemble’s interest is the presentation of programs and projects that reveal the often lesser-known face of European music from the end of 17th and 18th centuries. Concerto Aventino has created a number of projects focused on key moments in the development of the European Baroque and Renaissance: “European connections” (orchestral music by J.F. Rebel, G. Muffat and J.D. Zelenka), “Vivaldi revisited” (with a cast of only! female voices ) and more. In the dramaturgy of the ensemble, more and more attention is focused on pre-Baroque music – the programs “Nove e curios” and “Nell’inconstanza” present the audience with the repertoire of the early Italian Baroque and the dawn of instrumental virtuosity. The ensemble also performed several stage productions: G. B. Pergolesi’s opera intermezzo Livietta e Tracollo and music for the comedy dell’arte Commedia nova Amorosa, or Handel’s serenade Aci, Galatea e Polifemo. Concerto Aventino does not shy away from less orthodox projects either – as part of the Czech-German cooperation, the ensemble launched the Explorationen-traditionen project, or the combination of old music and new film.
