SonicCouture The Conservatoire Collection Complete [2 DVD] [KONTAKT]
Музыкальные инструменты великих композиторов 16-18 веков.
EXPLORE THE SOUNDWORLDS OF THE MASTERS
The instruments of the great composers are museum pieces now ; hundreds of years old and not in playable condition.
But in recent times period instrument specialists have begun recreating our musical past in the form of reproduction instruments.
By sourcing authentic materials and using traditional techniques from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, incredibly accurate copies of the finest historical instruments can be produced.
These beautiful new instruments bring the soundscape of our musical past to life, showing us how incredibly diverse our modern instruments’ predecessors were. We are now able to enter into our musical heritage more faithfully, and the new palette of sounds available offers fresh inspiration for composers today.
THE BIRMINGHAM CONSERVATOIRE
Birmingham Conservatoire is an international music school and major concert venue in central England. The school is a renowned centre for Early Music ; The Early Music Programme was set up in 1991 and has led the field in introducing historical instruments and style to as many young musicians as possible for over 20 years.
Soniccouture worked with Martin Perkins, Early Music Lecturer & Instrument Curator, and Joshua Sadler, a postgraduate, who acted as consultant producers for the Conservatoire Collection project - choosing the instruments to be sampled, sourcing players and advising on the best way to sample them.
