Maya Homburger and Malcolm Proud’s ensemble Camerata Kilkenny perform one
of J S Bach’s most enduring works, The Musical Offering, BWV 1079, with
the baroque flautist Wilbert Hazelzet. It’s their second recording for
Maya Recordings following a highly praised CD of Biber’s Mystery Sonatas
three years ago.

Founded by the Irish international harpsichordist and organist Malcolm Proud and
the Swiss violinist Maya Homburger, Camerata Kilkenny is a period instrument
group specialising in the performance of Baroque music. Many of its programmes
combine 17th and 18th century music with the works of contemporary composers. It
consists of artists from Ireland with guest artists from further afield who are
renowned internationally for their performances and recordings.

Camerata Kilkenny gave its debut recital at the Kilkenny Arts Festival in August
1999, since when it has performed in Switzerland, Austria, Germany, and Estonia.
In Ireland the group has appeared at the West Cork Chamber Music Festival, the
Sligo Festival of Baroque Music, the Festival of Great Irish Houses, the Galway
Early Music Festival, the East Cork Early Music Festival 'Music in the Mosaics'
in Timoleague and the Kilkenny Arts Festival.

In April 2010 Camerata Kilkenny and Wilbert Hazelzet gave a concert in St
Peter’s Church in Leut-Maasmechelen, Belgium following which they
recorded Bach’s Musical Offering. The Irish Times said:
“Performances of this extra-special work can be sometimes illuminated,
sometimes stultified, by an atmosphere of overpowering reverence. Not so this
one, in which the music’s artifices were subsumed in a world of rhetoric,
decoration and dance.”

Their first CD of Biber’s Mystery Sonatas with Maya Homburger was on the
“Bestenliste” of the prestigious German music industry ‘Preis
der deutschen Schallplattenkritik’ award in 2007.
