Vivaldi Orchestra Praga is one of the most important Czech ensembles which have chosen to follow the path of original early music interpretation. This ensemble consists of the best players on period instruments in Bohemia. They keep trying by the continuous study of archive materials to find and connect as many details of actual information as possible, which represent the key to understanding the spiritual heritage of the past. The foundation repertoire of the Vivaldi Orchestra Praga is the compositions of Antonio Vivaldi and many other examples of world and Czech baroque music. Represented in the repertoire are solo works (for violin, violoncello, recorder or traverso, harpsichord, theorbo), vocal compositions, and various versions of orchestral music. The players use all instruments in baroque form. The Vivaldi Orchestra Praga tries to maintain all attributes of authenticity by utilizing period music materials, instruments, bows, gut strings, and old tunings. Its goal is to interpret the music as performed by the best professionals of its period, with an entire range of effects and variation skills.
This ensemble has performed many successful concerts with its wide repertoire. In addition, members of the ensemble have recorded many albs, especially for the Japanese companies Pony Canyon, Exton, and the Czech firms Oliverius and Arta Records.
