Ensemble Zefiro
In 1989, the oboists Alfredo Bernardini and Paolo Grazzi, and the bassoonist Alberto Grazzi, members of the most outstanding baroque orchestras, founded ZEFIRO, a versatile music group specialising in the eighteenth-century repertoire that gives particular prominence to wind instruments.
Since then, ZEFIRO has performed at many major European festivals, including those of Amsterdam, Aranjuez, Barcelona, Bonn, Geneva, Graz, Helsinki, Innsbruck, London, Liege, Lyons, London, Malmö, Manchester, Milan, Munich, Palma de Mallorca, Paris, Potsdam, Prague, Ravenna, Regensburg, Rome, Salzburg, Stuttgart, Stresa, Utrecht and Vienna. They have also played in Israel, Egypt, Japan, Korea, USA, Canada, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay and Brazil and have always received enthusiastic responses from both audiences and the press.
Rassegna stampa
„Es war ein Genuss, dem frischen Spiel der Musiker zu lauschen, wie sie die liebenswiirdigen und ein-gängigen, oft auch (vor allem bei SepteU) geradezu spritzigen Kom-positlonen zum Klingen und Blii-hen brachten. Und es war zudem höchst interessant, dem spezifi-schen Klangbild der damaligen Zeit so nahe zu sein. Als Zugaben gab es komödiantisch servierte Bear-beitungen Arien aus Mozarts “Don Giovanni” und “Figaro”.

“… bubbled with vibrant energy… [a] buoyant, colorful performance.”
Steve Smith, New York Times, August 14. 2007
“…a combination of a wind band and the Flying Karamazov Brothers… this was exquisite music making.”
Fred Kirshnit, The New York Sun, August 14. 2007
