Jakob David Rattinger ist als Solist regelmäßig auf den Konzertpodien Alter Musik - Festivals und Konzertreihen zu hören. Weiters tritt er als Continuist mit zahlreichen Ensembles und Orchestern auf.

The Ensemble 18+ chamber orchestra was established in 2009 by Czech conductor and harpsichord player Vojtěch Spurný with the concept of applying the criteria of so-called historically informed performance to an ensemble of modern instruments. However, work with historic sources and knowledge of period performance techniques is simply a basis not the final goal.

IFebiarmonici have changed their name into Salzburg Barock.
With our new name we want to express our affection for our hometown and
her rich musical tradition. The revival of violinistic treasures and the perfor-
mance of sacral music in the liturgy of the christian churches are our concern.
The emphasis of our repertory compasses the time from H.I.F.Biber (1644-
1704) to W.A.Mozart (1756-1791).
