**Kees Boeke** is a Dutch early music specialist, multi-instrumentalist, and scholar celebrated for breathing new life into Renaissance and Baroque compositions. Known for his expertise in historical performance practices, he’s a master of instruments like the recorder, viola da gamba, and cornetto, often blending meticulous scholarship with expressive playing. Boeke has collaborated with or founded ensembles dedicated to reviving forgotten works, including the Ensemble Symposium and the Quadro Huelgas, and his recordings—like his explorations of Costanzo Festa’s *Mottetti* or Dufay’s intricate *Missae*—showcase his passion for unearthing gems from the 15th to 17th centuries. Whether interpreting Frescobaldi’s lively *Canzoni* or Palestrina’s sacred choral works, his projects reflect a deep commitment to authenticity and a knack for making centuries-old music feel vibrant and immediate.
