KirstiConsort, an international ensemble​ ​founded​ ​in​ ​October​ ​2015​ ​focuses​ ​on​ ​music​ ​composed​ ​by​ ​female​ ​composers​ ​of the​ ​baroque​ and classical ​era.​ ​Through the performance of​ ​this​ ​music,​ ​KirstiConsort​ ​endeavors​ ​to​ ​show​ ​the​ ​appreciation​ ​that​ ​they deserve, ​which was mostly ​not​ ​received ​in​ ​their​ ​lifetime.​ ​These composers had very diverse backgrounds, but they all wrote music in a time where not many women had the chance to do so. This​ ​great​ ​diversity​ ​is​ ​reflected​ ​in​ ​their​ ​music, which ranges from sacred motets to exciting sonatas and dramatic love songs.​

​

The importance of the rhetorical aspects, the delivery of the text, and the different affects and passions of each piece are central to KirstiConsort’s performances.

​In​ ​May​ ​2016​ ​KirstiConsort​ ​received the​ ​audience​ ​award​ ​of​ ​the​ ​Fontys​ ​Chamber​ ​Music​ ​Contest​ ​in​ ​‘s-Hertogenbosch.​ ​The​ ​ensemble​ ​has performed​ ​in​ ​various​ ​venues​ and concert series ​in​ ​the​ ​Netherlands​ ​and​ ​in​ ​Belgium,​ ​including​ ​Muziekgebouw Eindhoven​, the concert series of ​Catharijn​ ​Classique, Zaterdagmiddagmuziek in de Stevens in Nijmegen, at Oosterkerk in Amsterdam and at Koepelkerk van Arnhem.
