Gaechinger Cantorey is a German vocal and instrumental ensemble founded in 2014 by conductor Hans-Christoph Rademann. Based in Stuttgart, this group specializes in historically informed performances of Baroque music, particularly the works of J.S. Bach, while also exploring later repertoire like Verdi and Puccini. They’re closely tied to the Internationale Bachakademie Stuttgart and have gained attention for their ambitious "Vision. Bach" series, which aims to record Bach’s sacred cantatas in chronological order as part of their "The first Cantata Year" project. Known for blending scholarly precision with lively expression, the ensemble performs on period instruments and champions both well-loved classics (like the iconic *Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring* from BWV 147) and lesser-known gems. Their releases often balance Bach’s sacred works with surprises like Puccini’s rarely heard *Messa a 4 voci*, showcasing their versatility and deep-rooted passion for revitalizing centuries-old music.
