Classical Voice North America: Hearing the Los Angeles Philharmonic Outdoors and iPalpiti Indoors

Hearing the Los Angeles Philharmonic Outdoors and iPalpiti Indoors

“iPalpiti’s strings were completely unified and opulent… absolutely bloomed in this space, delivering a deep, rich bass in a movement from a C.P.E. Bach “Hamburg” Sinfonia in A, floating almost Stokowski-like in pater J.S. Bach’s “Air on the G String” with terrific control of dynamics…. Schmieder then presided over a lovingly conducted and played rendition of Pergolesi’s Stabat Mater in a period-performance clarity and luscious modern-instrument tone. Iceland’s Dísella Lárusdóttir displayed a big uninhibited operatic soprano, and Daniel Bubeck must have been delighted with the way Soka projected his pure, precise countertenor voice.”
– Richard S. Ginell, July 2014

“Schmieder led [iPalpiti] with crisp signals more concerned with impulses and phrases than beats …they produced a splendid and colorful sound… and polished armor. The virtuosity was quite impressive.”
— Timothy Mangan, The Orange County REGISTER, 2013
