HISTORY
INTENDE VOCI:
A SCHUBERTIAN INSPIRATION
“Intende voci orationis meae…” Tenor Mirko Guadagnini was inspired by the first verses of Psalm 5, set to music by F. Schubert in his Oratorium, when he decided to take up the profession of choir and orchestra conductor and to combine it with that of opera singer.
In 2013 he founded INTENDE VOCI in Milan, a choral reality that has quickly doubled its activity.
INTENDE VOCI ENSEMBLE, an ensemble of Italian baroque singers and musicians, is dedicated to Renaissance and Baroque music between 16th and 18th centuries.
INTENDE VOCI CHORUS, a mixed-voice choir, is dedicated to the classical repertoire for large ensembles of the 19th and 20th centuries, alongside contemporary music and choral lieder.
THE VOICE, CENTER OF THE MUSIC
The attention to vocality and the care of the style and musical language of every age are Intende Voci’s core values, both in the baroque repertoire, in which it is distinguished by the relevance of the specialists who participate in the activity of Intende Voci Ensemble, as well as in the 19th, 20th century and contemporary repertoire proper to the activity of Intende Voci Chorus always ready to explore rarities and also to debut new compositions.
