Albane Imbs (version courte) Direction, lute, theorbo & baroque guitar

Albane Imbs discovered the renaissance lute at the tender age of 6 and obtained her master degree of Early Music in 2017. As lutenist, theorbist, and baroque guitarist, soloist or bass player, Albane is performing regularly within well-known ensembles such as Le Concert des Nations (J. Savall), Kapsberger Ensemble (R. Lislevand), Insula Orchestra(L. Equilbey), Le Concert Spirituel (H. Niquet), Les Musiciens du Louvre (M. Minkowski)… In 2015, Albane created her own ensemble, Les Kapsber’girls, a vocal and instrumental quartet, with the desire of rediscovering, with a new look, disregarded baroque compositions. Their recordings have been rewarded by Diapason d’Or, ffff Télérama and 5 stars Classica among others distinctions.

VOX FEMINAE: new release!

After exploring Italian repertoires in Che fai tù? (Muso) and French in Vous avez dit brunettes? (Alpha Classics), Les Kapsber'girls dedicate their third recording to baroque composers: hidden talents, unrevealed destinies, few of these composers had the opportunity to reveal their art, yet it is very real.

Recent research has brought to life the fascinating works of composers such as Barbara Strozzi (1619-1677), Isabella Leonarda (1620-1704), Lucia Quinciani (1566-1611), Francesca Caccini (1587-1641), Antonia Bembo (c.1643-1715) and Francesca Campana (c.1615-c.1665), who spent 69 years of her life in an Ursuline convent in Novara, which did not prevent her from composing no less than two hundred works!
