Info zu Michel Pignolet de Montéclair: Concerts pour la Flûte Traversière avec la Basse Chiffré

Celebrated Montréal flutist Joanna Marsden explores the work of eighteenth century French composer Michel Pignolet de Montéclair on MONTÉCLAIR CONCERTS FOR BAROQUE FLUTE from Navona Records. The performances feature The Opus Project, a chamber music initiative founded by Marsden and Christophe Gauthier dedicated to revisiting early musical prints and manuscript sources in order to celebrate the unsung treasures of baroque chamber music. The “concerts” of Montéclair reconcile Italian virtuosity and complexity with French expressive language, exploring a variety of national styles to which he was exposed during his time working in Milan. Orchestrated with flute, viola da gamba, harpsichord, and theorbo, The Opus Project gives new life to these centuries-old compositions for modern audiences.

Joanna Marsden, baroque flute
Christophe Gauthier, harpsichord

The Opus Project
is a chamber music initiative formed in 2020 in Montréal by Christophe Gauthier and Joanna Marsden. Inspired by the beauty of early musical prints and manuscript sources, the Opus Project explores unsung treasures of the baroque chamber music repertoire by focusing deeply on one collection at a time.

Joanna Marsden
is a “fabulous” (The Whole Note) flautist based in Montréal, Québec. She has performed with numerous ensembles throughout North America and Europe “beautifully” (Luis Gago, Madrid) and “with notable rhetorical clarity” (Boston Musical Intelligencer), and worked with conductors including Ton Koopman, Masaaki Suzuki, Václav Luks, Julian Prégardien, Mathieu Lussier, and Florian Heyerick, among others. She holds degrees from Vassar College, the Royal Conservatory of the Hague, and McGill University. She has offered engaging workshops and masterclasses to students throughout Europe and North America.

Christophe Gauthier
A Montréal native, Christophe Gauthier performs regularly with Arion baroque orchestra, Studio de musique ancienne de Montréal, the Ensemble Clavecin en concert, and the Orchestre Métropolitain under the direction of Yannick Nézet-Séguin. His talents as a chamber musician have led him to found ensembles including the Opus Project (Montréal), Rendez-vous baroque français (Montréal), la Frontera (Mexico) and the Consort Laurentien (Basel, finalists at the York Early Music Festival Competition) and Fabulous Fringe (performers at the Utrecht Early Music Festival). His main teachers include Réjean Poirier, Luc Beauséjour, and Mireille Lagacé with Benjamin Alard and Jory Vinikour.

Margaret Little
During the last four decades, Margaret Little has performed as a soloist and chamber musician on the viola da gamba and baroque viola with various Montréal-based and international ensembles. Little co-founded Les Voix humaines with Susie Napper in the 1980s and was artistic co-director until 2020. Les Voix humaines have toured the world, received critical acclaim and prestigious awards. Little has recorded over 100 albums including two solo albums, most of them for the ATMA label.

Daniel Zuluaga
Theorbo, guitar, and lute player Daniel Zuluaga is a native of Colombia, where he began his musical education. His work has been praised for its “rhythmic vitality and a fine sense of color” (Washington Post) and lauded as “exemplary” and full of “great inventiveness” (San Francisco Classical Voice). Winner of Juno & Félix awards and a Grammy nominee, he performs regularly with leading orchestras in the United States and Canada. An avid researcher, Zuluaga is a specialist in Latin American Baroque music. He holds a Ph.D. in musicology from the University of Southern California and has published articles on the history of the guitar.
