Nomen est omen

“Estro Armonico”, an old Italian expression, could be translated as “harmonious being” or “harmonious genius”. Vivaldi thus used this term to refer to his Opus 3 concerti, and since some of these concertos were performed during the ensemble's first concert in 1992, the orchestra's players were inspired to adopt the name.

The message conveyed by the name really defines the spirit of the ensemble. Not only is Estro Armonico's playing characterized by homogeneous and harmonious interpretations, but the work within the orchestra among its musicians and with external contributors takes place in a most sympathetic atmosphere.

This approach to making music together is bearing fruit: the ensemble is highly regarded by the amateur formations it accompanies and by the public, as evidenced by the great enjoyment of attending Estro Armonico performances.
