About Artistic Director Rubén Dubrovsky:
The Vienna-based conductor Rubén Dubrovsky was born to a Polish-Italian artist family in Buenos Aires. Two experiences, which he skillfully and inspiringly links to this day, mark his path as a musician: his classical training as a cellist and conductor on the one hand, and on the other his passionate academic research into the common roots of traditional South American music and European Baroque music.
This versatile artist is a regular guest at international festivals, including the Musikverein (Vienna), Handel Festival (Karlsruhe & Halle), "Winter in Schwetzingen" Festival, Pergolesi Festival (Jesi), Haydn Festival (Eisenstadt), Osterklang Festival (Vienna) and Styriarte (Graz), as well as a live TV broadcast of Bach's Christmas Oratorio with the Spanish Radio choir and orchestra in Madrid.
As a highly sought-after in the world of opera, recent engagements include his opera debuts at the Sächsische Staatsoper Dresden (Incoronazione di Poppea), Palau de les Arts Valencia (Arbore di Diana), Opera Bonn (Orlando Furioso) and Theater an der Wien (Polifemo). In January 2015 he will make his debut at Nationaltheater Mannheim conducting a new production of Gluck's Alceste.
Maestro Dubrovsky became the Artistic Director of the Chicago Bach Ensemble in 2014.
About The Chicago Bach Ensemble:
Since its inaugural concert in January 2012, the Chicago Bach Ensemble has presented five cycles of J.S. Bach's cantatas to welcoming Chicago audiences. In September 2013, CBE received a three-year grant: the MacArthur Fund for Arts and Culture from the Richard H. Driehaus Foundation.
Thanks to the insightful direction of renowned baroque specialist and new Artistic Director Rubén Dubrovsky, CBE is growing closer to accurate historical performance practice through the use of period instruments and tuning, as well as utilizing a chamber vocal ensemble that serves as soloists and choristers. The CBE strives to feature Chicago's finest early music specialists.
