The aspirations of the Caecilia-Concert are to produce historically informed, exciting and innovative performances and all members are involved in academically based research as a way of achieving this. Much of the music performed by us is either virtually unknown or rarely performed and has been obtained from various libraries including the Uppsala University Library, Sweden, The City Libraries of Berlin, and The British Library, London. Programmes are put together based on historical events or influences and performance practice as it might have been at the time of composition reflect our interpretation. This said, using our knowledge about the instruments we know to have been available to the composers we perform and the specific way they were written for, we can also make justifiable substitutions when considering programmes and works and this allows us to present pieces that otherwise may not get performed. We are in the process of making modern performing editions of many works although often the original parts are clear enough to use in performance. | ||
