about
The Ensemble Musica Romana is bringing sounds of times long past to life again. By research of ancient music and reconstruction of ancient instruments they successfully revive archaic sounds and forgotten melodies. They focus on the music of ancient Rome and Greece, but also to make the audience familiar with sounds from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages. The group Musica Romana was founded in 2001 and unites archaeologists, historians, ethnologists, musicians and interested technicians sharing an interest in experimental archaeology, living history, museal paedagogics and of course, music and dance. They aim to make the music of times long gone comprehensible to the modern audience, to express love for unconventional and non-commercial music and to respect scientific correctness towards the ancient sources of musical theory as well as towards contemporary research. Its members are Susanna Rühling, Albin Paulus, Merit Zloch, Jutta Knur and Valentin Arnold. Well-known through numerous performances in museums, archeological parks, universities, academies and at other occasions, e.g. in Hungary, Italy, Spain, France, Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Austria, and Germany. Moreover, with contributions to CDs, films, TV, radio productions, exhibitions, and last but not least, a computer game.
