About the conductor Andrea Marcon

Andrea Marcon

The Venice Baroque Orchestra’s founder and director, Andrea Marcon, was born in Treviso in 1963 and received a diploma in early music from Basle’s Schola Cantorum for his organ and harpsichord studies with Jean-Claude Zehnder. Among his other influential teachers were Luigi Ferdinando Tagliavini, Hans van Nieuwkoop, Jesper Christensen, Harald Vogel and Ton Koopman. From 1983 to 1997, he was harpsichordist and organist of the Treviso-based early music ensemble Sonatori de la Gioiosa Marca. He also founded and directed the International Organ Festival “Città di Treviso”, playing a prominent role in the restoration of the city’s historic organs. He is a professor of harpsichord, organ and interpretation at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis (since 1997), and has also been visiting professor at the Sweelinck Conservatory in Amsterdam.

“... it was a revelation to hear the Venice Baroque Orchestra in an (almost) all-Vivaldi program . . . The group’s music director, Andrea Marcon, has no use for the “safe” Vivaldi, and he led the ensemble in vivid, nearly reckless performances, tearing the powdered wig off this music once and for all ... what was revealed was breathtaking.” - Washington Post, February 2007
