German Artists for the EU Music Festival 2020
The ensemble earned an international reputation for its historically correct and authentic plays. The musicians perform on original instruments or replicas. They do guest performances at Innsbrucker Festwochen der Alten Musik, Tage Alter Musik Herne, Gent Festival OdeGand, Festival Internacional de Arte Sacro in Madrid or Prager Frühling or Budapester Frühlingsfestival, to name just a few. The repertoire consists of works from Renaissance and Baroque. In addition to that the ensemble commissions pieces from contemporary composers.
Since its establishment in 2003 Ensemble Phoenix Munich was awarded numerous times for its records and concerts (e. g.
The Elfin Knight,
Rose of Sharon,
Requiem for a Pink Moon) of Old Music.
Joel Frederiksen and the instrumentalists will not play on their own, but be accompanied by sopranist Julla von Landsberg. The performance is part of the tour “Fürchtet Euch nicht!” (“Don’t fear!”) with a program of 17 pieces, among them works of Schütz and Monteverdi.

studied vocals and lute in New York and Michigan, where he finished with a master’s degree. He worked together with leading ensembles for Old Music like the Boston Camerata and Waverly Consort. Apart from that he called attention to himself as an opera- and oratorios singer. Engagements lead him from the famous Vancouver Summer Festival to festivals from Hong Kong to Brisbane. After his successful debut in 1998 at Salzburger Feststpiele Joel Frederiksen settled in Europe. With Munich as his base he travels Germany and foreign countries, to perform together with the most important groups for Old Music (like Jordi Savall, Huelgas Ensemble, Freiburger Barockorchester) as a vocalist.
Apart from that he is occupied with his own programs and his special field: the lute-play of Renaissance and Early Baroque. Countless awards give credit to the artists originality and stylistic assurance.
