The Greek God Apollo was often accompanied by the nine muses.They were the daughters of Mnemosyne and Zeus. One of them was Euterpe, the joyous muse of music and lyrical poetry.
The Euterpe Baroque Consort was established by artistic leader Bart Rodyns in 2007. Professional singers, soloists and musicans are members of this flexible ensemble interpreting fascinating Baroque music in a historical way. Quickly they were invited to play in large festivals like Flanders Festival, Musica Divina, Cloppenburger Kultursommer, MuziekpodiumZeeland, Fort4 classic, Museumnight Antwerp, Festival der Voorkempen enz.
The ensemble played 'Klara in het Paleis 2008 and 2009', both live broadcasted. For the Flemish classical radio they performed Biber’s Missa Bruxelensis (23 parts) and they created a new Stabat Mater by Hawar Tawfiq with Capella Pratensis (Stabat Mater Stichting Oirschot)
