Vox Feminae
Release: March 28, 2025 – Label: Alpha Classics / Outhere Music
"A vibrant tribute to the Italian women composers of the Seicento."
This third album celebrates the forgotten voices of five 17th-century Italian women composers: Francesca Caccini, Barbara Strozzi, Antonia Bembo, Isabella Leonarda, and Francesca Campana. In it, Les Kapsber’girls unfold all the emotional, poetic, and spiritual richness of these works, ranging from cantatas, arias, and villanelles to instrumental pieces.
Vous avez dit Brunettes ?
Release : 2021 – Label : Alpha Classics
"Lightness, freshness, and elegance in these 18th-century French airs."
This album explores the repertoire of brunettes — gallant and tender chansonnettes from Enlightenment-era France. From Julie Pinel to Jacques Naudé, via the royal publishers Ballard, Les Kapsber’girls offer an intimate and joyful reading of these airs, somewhere between pastoral melancholy and amorous banter."
Che Fai Tù ?
Release : 2020 – Label : Muso
« Un premier disque remarqué, consacré aux villanelles italiennes de Kapsberger. »
The ensemble’s first recording, Che Fai Tù?, pays tribute to composer Girolamo Kapsberger, a brilliant figure of the Seicento. Around his villanelles for one and two voices, the ensemble reveals a sound world full of grace, character, and fantasy.
