Artist Biography
Switzerland's Capella Itineris, meaning Itinerant Ensemble, takes its Latin name seriously: the members travel on foot to concerts whenever possible. The group specializes in music of the 16th and 17th centuries. Capella Itineris was formed in 2016 by Josquin Piguet and Marc Pauchard. In 2020, Capella Itineris devised a new program called Stadtpfeifer (or "City Piper"). Part of the program was Daniel Speer, an intriguing figure of the German Baroque, a Stadtpfeifer himself. The Stadtpfeifer program formed the basis for the group's debut album, which the group issued in 2022; the album Daniel Speer followed on the Aparte label in 2023.
