Woodpeckers are a dynamic group of virtuoso recorder players who share a common interest in performing and promoting both very old and very new music for their instrument. Their aim is to present the recorder as an important concert instrument of our times. At the forefront of Woodpeckers’ ideology is the drive to kick the age-old image of the recorder being merely a stepping-stone to something else, and they are intent on spreading their knowledge far and wide, be it through videos, recordings, workshops, teaching, research, and of course, live concerts.

We’ve just ended our first mini spring tour – a beautiful start to the season 😍While visiting St Nicolai Church in Trelleborg, Sweden, we recorded “So ben mi cha bon tempo” (1590) by Orazio Vecchi. Though originally a lively Renaissance piece, we chose a slower tempo, allowing the church’s rich acoustics to shape the music 💫More to come from us this spring! 👉🏻Clara Guldberg RavnCaroline Eidsten DahlPernille PetersenKate Hearne… See MoreSee Less
