Rubato Appassionato was founded in the year 2000 at the Royal Conservatory in The Hague. The ensemble devotes itself to baroque music, exploring the beauty and elegance of the 18th century. The unique combination of instruments opens doors to creativity and originality while remaining faithful to the spirit and aesthetics of baroque music. The repertoire embraces music from Spain, Italy, Germany, France and England, containing pieces which are both exquisite and virtuous. Passionate for the research of forgotten and unknown Spanish compositions, the ensemble imposes on itself the goal of capturing these musical gems and offer them to the public. Rubato Appassionato has performed all over Spain, Holland and Israel and has recorded with the labels La mà de guido / LMG2068 (ES), MA Recordings / MO75A (JAP-USA) and AcoustiCDelicatessen / ACD 001 (ES).
Apart from its beautiful and brilliant repertoire of baroque music, Rubato Appassionato uses its powerful creativity to perform two other amazing shows: "Música en la selva" (a musical tale for children, with theatre, a zebra, a tiger and a bull) and "En los Kampos de la Muerte" (powerful poems from Holocaust survivor Moshe 'Ha-Elion, music, death and hope, with Gary Shochat).
