The orchestra L'arte del mondo dedicates itself to early music on historical instruments and to the repertoire up to contemporary music. Under the artistic direction of Werner Ehrhardt, the ensemble regularly works with international soloists and companies on innovative programmes and intercultural projects. These include a choreographed production of the »St Matthew Passion« with the Israeli Kamea Dance Company and collaborations with soloists such as Daniel Müller-Schott and Dorothee Oberlinger. From August 2020 to February 2021, the orchestra has developed a multi-part project funded by the »Programme for Orchestras under New Challenges in 2020«. Besides »St Matthew Passion 2727«, the ensemble will perform alongside Nils Mönkemeyer, Francesca L. Mazzulli, and Dorothee Oberlinger, in the current season.
