Hofkapelle Stuttgart

German Baroque Orchestra

Hofkapelle Stuttgart is not an individual artist, composer, or band but rather a historically informed performance ensemble based in Stuttgart, Germany. The ensemble specializes in the performance of music from the Renaissance to the Classical period using period instruments and historically informed playing techniques. They are known for their interpretations of works by composers such as Luigi Cherubini and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, among others. The Hofkapelle Stuttgart often collaborates with the Stuttgart Chamber Choir (Stuttgarter Kammerchor) under the direction of Frieder Bernius, who is a renowned conductor in the field of early music. Together, they have produced several recordings that have been well-received for their authenticity and musicality, including works by Cherubini and Mozart. The ensemble's dedication to historical performance practice has made it a respected group within the classical music community.
