Concentus Musicus, Wien
An early music performance group using period instruments. Founded in 1952 by Austrian cellist and conductor Nikolaus Harnoncourt (1929- ), the group began public performances in 1957, using original instruments and aiming to perform in accordance with the performance practices of the Renaissance and Baroque periods. They established their reputation with their performance of the complete Brandenburg Concertos by JS Bach in 1966. Their performances are solid, supported by a deep knowledge of early music, and they can be said to be at the forefront of today's early music movement.

古楽器を用いた古楽演奏団体。オーストリアのチェロ奏者,指揮者のアルノンクールNikolaus Harnoncourt(1929‐ )が1952年に結成した。公開の演奏活動は57年からで,オリジナルの楽器を用い,ルネサンスおよびバロック期の演奏習慣に則した演奏をめざす。66年のJ.S.バッハの《ブランデンブルク協奏曲》の全曲演奏によって名声を確立した。古楽に対する深い造詣にささえられた演奏は堅実であり,今日の古楽運動の先頭に立つものといえる。
