What does it mean to perform Baroque music today?
In the final episode of Season 6, I speak with Belgian tenor Reinoud Van Mechelen, founder and artistic director of a nocte temporis, about navigating the early music world between iconic masterpieces and forgotten jewels. We talk about festivals, opera characters, curating programs from morning to night, and how to stay fresh when performing the same repertoire again and again.
While editing this episode, one thought kept returning: the audience doesn’t come to check if we are right or wrong — they come for an experience. Simply “playing a concert” is no longer enough. People are ready to receive more.
🎶 Episode 12 is out now — and with it, the close of Season 6.
