Les Ambassadeurs ~ La Grande Écurie is a vibrant French period-instrument orchestra that's all about bringing baroque and classical music to life with authentic flair. Led by the talented flutist and conductor Alexis Kossenko, the group builds on the legacy of La Grande Écurie et la Chambre du Roy, which was originally founded in 1966 by Jean-Claude Malgoire to revive forgotten gems from the 17th and 18th centuries using historical instruments and techniques.
Known for their energetic performances and recordings, they've tackled everything from Lully's operas and Mondonville's lively works to Mendelssohn's symphonies with a fresh, period-appropriate twist. Whether it's the grandeur of royal French festivities or intricate chamber pieces, this ensemble keeps the spirit of the past alive while making it super accessible and fun for modern audiences.
