As an Ensemble spe­cial­ized on the music between the late 15^th and ear­ly 17^th cen­tu­ry, Echo Temporis Consort was found­ed in 2017 by the four recorder play­ers Clément Gester, Noemi Müller, Charlotte Schneider and Lea Sobbe, who met dur­ing their stud­ies at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. Exploring the vocal and instru­men­tal Renaissance reper­toire, the young musi­cians’ aim is to fea­ture the immense vari­ety of sound colours of this music with the pos­si­bil­i­ties offered by a recorder con­sort. In con­se­quence Echo Temporis Consort exper­i­ments with dif­fer­ent scor­ings to find colour­ful instru­men­ta­tions, empha­siz­ing the affect of each piece. The groups’ approach to its musi­cal reper­toire is char­ac­ter­ized by bal­anc­ing the imi­ta­tion of vocal prac­tice and the advan­tages of the pos­si­bil­i­ties a pure­ly instru­men­tal set­ting offers. Echo Temporis reg­u­lar­ly per­forms in con­certs in Switzerland. The group receives lessons with Katharina Bopp, Conrad Steinmann and Han Tol at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. In mas­ter­class­es and coach­ings with Susanna Borsch, Peter van Heyghen, Pedro Memelsdorff and Jan Van Hoecke the musi­cians keep dis­cov­er­ing their reper­toire from dif­fer­ent perspectives.
