After the 1984’s Early Music Festival in Mihályi the Ensemble has become famous throughout Hungary. The heart of the Ensemble is the recorder-quintet, which gives with its tenor and contrabass instruments a special, new sound. Some string instruments, harpsichord, lute, percussion instruments complete the recorder-quintet and they also use some curios instruments: cortholt, rauschpfeife, cromone cornamus etc. The repertoire consist of mainly English, Italian, Spanish and Netherlandish dance music. They play in colorful scoring of composition by Susato, Phalese, Praetorius, Holborne Brade etc. They undertake the task of performing early Hungarian music as well. Thew Ensemble play cordially baroque triosonata, other early Baroque and Renaissance chamber pieces. In their interpretation they revive the everyday’s performing practice of the above-mentioned periods: improvisation and the rich figuration-technique.

   Their artistic ambition is declared by Albert Pálinkás, the artistic director of the Ensemble, as follows:
   “We were always interested in that field of music history which is almost unknown for us, and for the public, as well. In our days audience knows better the classical music, therefore our intention is to discover early music together with the audience because they cannot imagine, how colorful, exciting and substantial it is. At that time musicians were not tied: usually they knew very well the most popular pieces, and the composers left them to play the pieces in that instrumentation in which they would have liked. This freedom of performance is in our days still drawing. Naturally, it goes along with some kind of restriction while you must know the performing practice of musical period as best one can. We would like to change the “prosaic pages of music history” into a “live musical experience” and to show, that many centuries ago what kind of human feelings the well known and unknown masters had. We would like to show also, that this music, this art is as eternally human, as the music of our days.”
