BIBER
Sacrum/Profanum
The debut album of Fantastica is a story of contrasts. Sacrum.Profanum. takes you on a musical journey through the world of Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber—a composer who masterfully balanced between the extraordinary and the everyday. In his works, spirituality meets earthly expression, and mystical contemplation intertwines with untamed virtuosity. On this album, the Baroque violin and harpsichord not only interpret these contrasts but become part of them—vibrating with energy, painting sonic landscapes, and telling stories filled with tension, melancholy, and bravado.
Release: 29 April 2025
FANTASTICUS
A Sensual Play of Contrasts
Virtuosity, madness, and a sonic journey through the 17th-century Habsburg Empire. Fantasticus is a program brimming with intense, virtuosic challenges in stylus fantasticus—a style full of musical ecstasy, unfettered improvisation, and unexpected twists. It is a collision of well-known sonatas by H.I.F. Biber with nearly forgotten compositions, such as the recently rediscovered Sonata in D minor by Heinricus Litzkau, a true musical gem.
