Roland Wilson is a conductor, cornett player, and early music specialist who brings Renaissance and Baroque works to life with his ensemble Musica Fiata. Known for his scholarly approach and knack for reconstructing historical scores, he's become a key figure in the early music scene. His recent projects dive deep into composers like Heinrich Schütz – check out his vibrant take on the *Weihnachtshistorie* or his reconstruction of Schütz’s lost opera *Dafne* – and Matthias Weckmann, whose chamber works he’s revived with crisp energy. Whether he’s unpacking intricate sacred pieces or reimagining royal wedding music from 16th-century Munich, Wilson balances academic rigor with performances that feel fresh and alive. If you’ve heard his *Schwanengesang* recording or the lush textures of *Domine, quid multiplicati sunt à 12*, you’ll know he’s all about making old-world music resonate with modern ears.
