Ross Mitchell
Ross Mitchell is a violinist specialising in early music, heard in sacred repertoire from chant and Renaissance motets through to late-Baroque cantatas.
On Buxtehude: Cantatas (TP157) he plays violin in Italian-style sacred motets and cantatas for solo, duo and trio voices with instruments, recorded in the Chapel of the Carmelite Monastery in Kew, Melbourne.
He also appears on O Rose So Red (MD 3209), a programme of Marian chants, songs and motets spanning more than a millennium.
Performing as Accademia Arcadia
Accademia Arcadia plays baroque cantatas and chamber sonatas with one-to-a-part heat: Buxtehude's sacred motets, Handel's Italian dramas full of fire, Corelli through Purcell and Leclair, and improvisatory violin writing that still feels spontaneous.
Buxtehude: Cantatas
This CD is a must for Buxtehude fans, with five works not then available on disc. Arcadia is a new Melbourne ensemble formed to explore early vocal works.
