Orchestral ensemble using period instruments.

Since its creation the “Ensemble Baroque de Léman” has won over the public and the critics alike by the quality and generosity of their interpretation. At the present time this group, playing Baroque music, is the most sought after in the Léman region.

Founded in 2001 there has been an everchanging composition of the players, which encourages local musical talent who share in this passion. The EBL is made up of musicians who possess a distinctive style , and when added to the enthusiasm of its founder and artistic director, Jean Phillippe Iracane, leads to enthralling interpretations of some magnificent works.

Renowned and celebrated International musicians such as Barthold Kuijken, Sigiswald Kuijken, Frédérik Hass or, not to mention, Florence Magloire, regularly collaborate, whether it be the ensemble’s seasonal concerts or specific projects. In 2011 Robert Gini was named as Conductor of the EBL and Barthold Kuijken was asked to be the permanent Guest Conductor.
