Ricercar, to seek, has been the underlying motto of the Ricercar Consort ever since its foundation.

It was in 1985, with J. S. Bach’s Musical Offering, that the ensemble made its first concert tour, having already acquired a solid international reputation with its recordings, notably in German Baroque cantatas and instrumental music.
