Welcome to the online home of The Amadè Players, a London-based group of musicians with a passion for historically informed performance of the music of the eighteenth-century. Whilst we perform works by the famed heros of the century, J.S. Bach, Handel, Mozart and Haydn, we will also seek to introduce audiences to less renowned composers such as Wanhal, Dittersdorf, Michael Haydn, Leopold Mozart and Myslivecek. The Amadè Players approach concerts from both performance and research perspectives, so as to offer an historically informed sound. We feel the crucial word is informed, and do not seek to achieve the impossible in sound creation or assuming the intent of a composer, but rather give our audience an exciting performance based upon in-depth historical and musicological research, combined with musicianship of the highest quality. We are proud to be collaborating for our 2012-2013 Season with The Foundling Museum, and the Department of Music at Goldsmiths, University of London. |
"As a supporter of the Foundling Hospital, Handel played a key role in the musical lives of disadvantaged young people in London. I am delighted to be supporting the educational work of The Amadè Players, and their collaboration with the Foundling Museum"
