Notturna

Founded in 2006 and directed by oboist Christopher Palameta, Notturna is a chamber collective whose “spirited and sensitive playing” (Early Music America) draws on the transparency and expressiveness of early wind instruments to paint fresh pictures of an unexplored historical repertoire. Notturna has toured extensively in North and South America and Europe, assembling vivid and dynamic programmes its musicians interpret with zeal and uncompromising depth. Recent performances include recitals at festivals in Belgium, France, Finland, Argentina and Peru. The ensemble’s discography includes five world premiere recordings for the ATMA Classique label, as well as a disc of forgotten chamber works with oboe from the Court of Prussia for Sony/Deutsche Harmonia Mundi, all of which have garnered unanimous praise from the international press.
