Ensemble Impression
A trio consisting of one woodwind and two string instruments: flute and violin accompanied by a cello. But that would be too simplistic a description of this formation. For Ensemble Impression has found the special allure of combining the sounds of wind and string instruments – a trio in constant “trialogue”, solemn or with breathtaking virtuosity, full of passion for sound in high and low registers alike. The composers who have written works for this special trio of instruments includes such luminaries as Johann Sebastian Bach, his son Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, Antonio Vivaldi and Joseph Haydn.
- Raphaelle Zaneboni, flute
- David Ignatius, violin
- Anne Wollenweber, cello
Ignatius Quartett
The string quartet is the most important genre of chamber music. The Ignatius Quartett has set itself the task of performing music in string quartet formation that was not necessarily created for this instrumentation. Whether lyrical, percussive, temperamental or even meditative, the Ignatius Quartett seeks out ways to reimagine and do justice to various musical styles with its classical instrumentation. Its repertoire includes composers such as George Gershwin, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and, last but not least, Astor Piazzolla with his Tango Nuevo.
- David Ignatius, 1st violin
- Johanna Wollenweber, 2nd violin
- Valérie Sigrist, viola
- Anne Wollenweber, cello
