Les Ambassadeurs ~ La Grande Écurie
Biography
Les Ambassadeurs - La Grande Écurie, a Baroque-oriented French orchestra, resulted from the fusion of two existing groups, Les Ambassadeurs and La Grande Écurie et La Chambre du Roy. The new united group released its debut album, Per l'Orchestra di Dresda, Vol. 1, with Alexis Kossenko as conductor in 2021. Les Ambassadeurs - La Grande Écurie have released several more recordings, including those of Rameau's operas Achante et Céphise and Zoroastre. In 2023, the group ventured beyond Baroque repertory with a historically oriented recording of Mendelssohn's Symphony No. 4 in A minor, Op. 90 ("Italian"), and Symphony No. 5 in D major/D minor, Op. 107 ("Reformation").
