Description

Les Kapsber'girls are a vocal and instrumental ensemble founded in 2015 by lutenist Albane Imbs. The name of the Baroque composer Giovanni Girolamo Kapsberger is somewhat indicative, but is not dogmatically followed in the programs. The ensemble has already successfully explored both Italian and French repertoire and dedicates its third album to selected female Baroque composers. Hidden talents, undiscovered fates - only a few of these composers have had the opportunity so far to reveal their art, which is nevertheless very real. Recent research has made it possible to revive the fascinating works of Barbara Strozzi (1619-1677), Isabella Leonarda (1620-1704), Lucia Quinciani (1566-1611), Francesca Caccini (1587-1641), Antonia Bembo (c. 1643-1715 ) and Francesca Campana (c. 1615-c.1665), who composed no fewer than two hundred works. Les Kapsber'girls make these treasures audible.
