A musical portrait of Albrecht Dürer

The biography of a great master
Masterful music for six extraordinary pictures with 11 recorder players
The Royal Wind Music
The ensemble The Royal Wind Music consists of graduates of the Amsterdam Conservatory. They play on recorders of all sizes, from the sopranino to the three-meter-long subcontrabass recorder. All instruments are built by renowned specialists based on historical models, such as the Ambras flutes in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. In its unconventional programs, the ensemble relies on direct communication with the audience. Our concert focuses on one of the key figures of the Renaissance: the German painter prince Albrecht Dürer. The music performed corresponds with Dürer's masterpieces, including works from the court chapel of Emperor Maximilian I, who was one of Albrecht Dürer's most important patrons and patrons. The Innsbruck Court Church, which houses Maximilian's magnificent tomb with the famous Black Men (Dürer designed the figure of King Arthur, for example), is therefore the ideal venue for this concert, which promises top-class synaesthetic pleasure and an extraordinary listening experience in an original setting.
