Linde Consort is a free group of instrumentalists working, above all, in Basel - some of them teaching at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. Numerous recordings and concerts proved the rich variety of differing cast this ensemble disposes of.
Part of the group´s work is dedicated to the performance of baroque compositions for wind instruments and strings. This includes chamber music casts as well as music for chamber orchestra.
Some of the instruments used are originals from the 18th century, some are copies of historic examples. The group specialises in a performance in ¨Broken Consort¨. For this, a model cast as described by Morley (¨Consort Lessons¨) is gathered, i. e. violin, bass recorder, viola da gamba, lute, cittern and pandora. Linde Consort also performs music for recorder ensembles with or without thorough-bass.
In Europe and overseas critics unanimously confirmed that Linde is one of the most outstanbding flutists of our days. He conducted and directed various ensembles in concerts (as e. g. at the 1970 Heinrich-Schütz-Festival in Hartford or the English Chamber Orchestra in 1972) and recordings (as e. g. the concert group of the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis). Linde Consort includes such renowned soloists as Konrad Ragossnig (lute / guitar), Eduard Müller (harpsichord / organ), Alfred Sous (Baroque oboe) and Herbert Hoever (Baroque violin).
