CANDLELIGHT CONCERT II: Ensemble Rosa Mystica
Ensemble Rosa Mystica was created in 2022 as an experimental project by Dr. Jan Hajič, harpsichordist, organist and digital musicologist of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. The ensemble focuses primarily on the application of baroque musical rhetoric — consistently, for example, including adding text to instrumental parts. The result is an extremely compelling musical experience.
