Capella de Ministrers

Capella de Ministrers is an eminent early music ensemble based in Valencia, Spain, that specializes in the historical interpretation of music from the Middle Ages through to the Baroque period. Founded in 1987 by Carles Magraner, who is also the group's director and viola da gamba player, the ensemble has skillfully crafted a niche for itself in the early music scene by highlighting the rich cultural and musical heritage of the Iberian Peninsula.

With a broad discography that reflects an expansive exploration of historical music, Capella de Ministrers has received critical acclaim for their dedication to research, authentic performance practices, and the revival of forgotten works. Albums like "Sixena" and "Regina" celebrate the sacred and the courtly, while "Música grotesca" and "El collar de la paloma" delve into more thematic and sometimes theatrical realms of early music traditions. Their exploration of various cultural influences is showcased in works like "Mediterrània," which captures the essence of Mediterranean musical landscapes, and in "Claroscuro," they explore the contrasts of light and darkness within the music. Their dedication to religious and historical themes is further exemplified in "Cantigas de Santa María," while albums such as "Germanies," "Super Lamentationes," and "A Circle in the Water" highlight the group's versatility and command of the emotional depth characteristic of early music. Across their work, Capella de Ministrers consistently illuminates the timelessness of historical music, presenting it with a vibrancy that resonates with contemporary audiences.
