Rinaldo Alessandrini live in Amsterdam

Experience Rinaldo Alessandrini live on December 2nd

Rinaldo Alessandrini, an Italian harpsichordist and conductor specializing in Baroque and early Classical music, will perform at Muziekgebouw Amsterdam on December 2nd, 2026. Alessandrini is recognized for his historically informed performance practice, emphasizing clarity of articulation, nuanced ornamentation, and a deep engagement with the stylistic conventions of the 17th and 18th centuries. He frequently performs solo harpsichord repertoire as well as directing ensembles from the keyboard, focusing particularly on composers like Scarlatti, Bach, and Handel. His interpretations are often praised for their expressive depth and technical brilliance.

Muziekgebouw Amsterdam, opened in 2005, is a leading concert hall dedicated to contemporary and new music, though it also hosts performances spanning a broad range of genres including early music. Designed by architect Wilhelm Holzbauer, the hall is situated within the Amsterdam Royal Concertgebouw complex but offers a distinctly different acoustic and architectural experience. It’s known for its flexible spaces—including the Great Hall with adjustable acoustics—and commitment to fostering innovative musical experiences.
