Our Discography
Since its founding in 1998, New Trinity Baroque has produced a substantial body of recordings devoted to baroque opera, sacred repertoire, and instrumental works performed on period instruments.
Released primarily on the Edition Lilac label, these recordings reflect the ensemble’s sustained commitment to historically informed performance, combining stylistic precision with expressive vitality.
The discography includes landmark recordings of Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas, Bach’s orchestral and solo works, Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu Nostri, Handel arias, Pergolesi’s Stabat Mater, and a wide range of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century repertoire. Featured artists have included soprano Evelyn Tubb, countertenor Terry Barber, tenor Leif Aruhn-Solén, and other distinguished early music specialists.
Several releases have received critical attention in publications including Opera (London), Early Music (Oxford University Press), and Early Music America.
Recordings are available through major digital platforms and selected retail outlets.

Reviews
“Impeccable work from the 13-piece band (including five continuo players). Predrag Gosta shows good musical instincts and, unlike some period performers, one feels he is willing to depart from the strict letter of the score when dramatically necessary.”
Opera
“Thomas Meglioranza gives a thoughtful and sympathetic performance that sends a breath of fresh air gently through the opera. His soft-grained voice and confiding manner suggest a soft-hearted hero who could truly win the heart of a young widowed queen.”
Early Music (Oxford University Press)
“Backed by a fine cast, Tubb sings a splendid Dido, but it is as the Sorceress that she truly makes this recording stand out from other versions...”

The recording adopts a one-player-per-part approach. This transparent texture allows the contrapuntal interplay between soloist and ensemble to emerge with exceptional clarity, while preserving the rhetorical vitality and rhythmic energy central to Bach’s concerto writing.

Reviews
“The musicians of New Trinity Baroque have a particularly good sense of rhythm. The fast movements have a nice and infectious swing, the slow swaying rhythms of the pastorale movements are realised with gentle precision.
New Trinity Baroque delivers an outstanding performance: beautiful string playing and excellent ensemble… I don’t hesitate to recommend it… Once again I am impressed by their performances, and especially the warm and pleasant sound of their strings. I very much appreciate Predrag Gosta’s approach to the repertoire he chooses to perform.”

Reviews
“Highly impressive and technically immaculate interpretation... New Trinity Baroque share their theatrical and gestural approach of Vivaldi’s music with Italian baroque orchestras...
I was especially struck by the warm and pleasant sound of the ensemble, and the high technical standard.
The treatment of dynamics and tempo and the clear exposition of the rhythmic pulse are some of the features of these performances which I particularly appreciate, and which I so often sorely miss in recordings.
Most definitely: yes! Even if you have a large number of Vivaldi discs in your collection, you should consider purchasing this one. You won’t be disappointed.”

Reviews
"The augmentation of the vocal music by the inclusion of three organ noels, an offertoire (Couperin, for organ) and a concluding Nuit (from H416) is much to be welcomed. As is the use of voice flutes – surely the correct flûtes in this repertoire... The general musical style is secure…
New Trinity are a hard-working ensemble who have been blazing a trail for 10 years.”Early Music Review

Reviews
"It is no surprise to find [these two oratorios] recorded together on this release. What is a surprise, and a pleasant one at that, is to see that this version of Jonas contains previously unrecorded material...
New Trinity Baroque, performing beautifully as always on period instruments, accompanies the vocal parts simply and tastefully... the opening ‘sinfonia’, in its dramatic restraint and sense of ensemble, sets the tone for the rest of the recording... the instrumental portion of the recording is consistently delightful...
Julia Matthews's rendition of the nameless daughter in Jepthe is particularly beautiful – definitely a highlight of the recording.
Jephte is strong in its dramatic presentation and in its musical precision... Well done."
