The best violinist of the 18th century who had served the Salzburg archbishop 100 years before Mozart; the greatest composer of the pre-Bach era (according to P. Hindemith); creator of the “Rosary” for violin, the Salzburg mass for 53 voices and an array of sacred and worldly music pieces which showcased his masterful technique, energetic attitude, thirst for knowledge and great sense of humour — all this refers to Heinrich von Biber.
Biber gained fame as a virtuoso, made a career in music composition, got the noble “von” prefix (along with a coupon for free bread, wine and wood), and wrote an incredibly beautiful mass for when his daughter became a nun. However, his own credo was “Fidem In Fidebus” (“I believe in violins”).
Today, we are listening to his “Battalia” for ten instruments, performed by members of musicAeterna
