Info zu In Wilhelmine’s Footsteps

Das Barockensemble Camerata Øresund und sein musikalischer Leiter/Violinist Peter Spissky erkunden die Welt der Wilhelmine von Bayreuth (1709-1758), welche sich als Komponistin, Instrumentalistin und Kunstmäzenin einen Namen machte. Die Aufnahme bringt Werke von Wilhelmine und Musikern aus ihrem Umkreis ans Licht, wobei einige lang in Vergessenheit geratene Stücke wieder zu entdecken sind. Wilhelmines Unternehmergeist, ihr Intellekt, ihr Talent und ihre tiefe Liebe zur Musik und zu den Künsten bleiben eine fortwährende Quelle der Inspiration. Dieses Album ist eine Hommage an das Leben und das Vermächtnis dieser bemerkenswerten Frau der Künste und enthüllt lebendige musikalische Farben und Klänge in den Konzerten, Tänzen und Arien.

Peter Spissky, Violine, Leitung

Camerata Øresund
The Copenhagen-based early music ensemble, Camerata Øresund, is a vibrant group of versatile musicians, founded in 2010 by artistic director and violinist Peter Spissky. The ensemble brings together talented musicians from the Øresund region which spans Southern Sweden and Eastern Denmark by way of the iconic Øresund Bridge.

Rooted in historically informed performance traditions, the ensemble offers a fresh perspective through energetic, intuitive performances, fuelled by the dynamic interplay between musicians and engagement with the audience.

Camerata Øresund performs regularly at a variety of venues and festivals across Denmark and Europe, presenting programs that blend artistic excellence, creativity, and engagement. Their repertoire includes both well-loved masterpieces and hidden gems, with everything from thematic children’s concerts and unconventional concert formats to opera and oratorios. Camerata Øresund’s commitment to offering inventive takes on 17th and 18th century music, as well as engaging and inspiring their audience, makes them one of the distinctive Scandinavian voices in the world of early music.

Peter Spissky
is concertmaster of the baroque orchestra Concerto Copenhagen, with which he has performed at the Musikverein Vienna, the Concertgebouw Amsterdam and in the USA and Japan, among others, and has recorded with conductors such as Lars Ulrik Mortensen, Jordi Savall, Paul Hillier, Andrew Lawrence-King and Alfredo Bernardini. Spissky is also musical director of the baroque orchestra Camerata Øresund, which performed a series of Bach's violin concertos in the Bach on the Bridge concert series in 2010. Guest engagements as concertmaster and conductor regularly take Spissky to ensembles such as Barokkanerne in Oslo, Baroque Aros in Aarhus, Skalholt Bach Consort in Iceland, Finnish Baroque Orchestra, Jönköping Sinfonietta, Ostrobothnian Chamber Orchestra and Tallinn Chamber Orchestra. As a violinist, he has performed with the Barokksolistene in Oslo, Solamente naturali in Bratislava, the Boston Early Music Festival Orchestra with Stephen Stubbs and Paul Odette and the FestspielOrchester Göttingen, among others. Spissky also teaches baroque violin at the Musikhögskolan in Malmö and at Det Kongelige Danske Musikkonservatorium in Copenhagen and gives masterclasses throughout Scandinavia. In October 2017, he completed his doctorate at Lund University with his thesis ‘Ups and Downs - Violin Bowing as Gesture’.
