This year’s Early Music Days offers a truly special program: not only will there be Baroque music, but Classical and Romantic works as well, and the composers represent a wide range of nationalities. What’s more, at this year’s closing concert, a Japanese violinist, Shunske Sato, will take the podium as conductor.

Shunske Sato is a versatile musician. As a violinist, he is equally at home performing as a soloist and leading ensembles, whether playing a Baroque or a modern violin. As a conductor, he works with both instrumental and vocal ensembles.

Shunske Sato draws inspiration from the principles of historically informed performance practice in every musical era; for him, the framework of the past is essential to bringing music to life in the present. He is particularly active in exploring the latest research on 19th-century performance practice, and he regularly gives lectures and masterclasses on the subject.
