About

Markus Kuikka started playing viola da gamba after hearing one well-known Catalan viola da gamba player in Helsinki in the early 1990s. From that inspiration sprang his efforts to learn the instrument, ultimately leading to a 2009 doctorate from the Sibelius Academy on the topic of Baryton (a bass gamba with a set of resonance strings) and Arpeggione (a bowed guitar).

Kuikka performs both as a soloist and with the Jaye Consort Helsinki. He has founded the BarokkiKuopio Early Music Festival and was its artistic director from 2005 to 2016. Kuikka has released two CDs, The Private Pleasure of Prince Esterházy (2009) and Luminous Baryton (2012). He currently works at the DocMus Doctoral School of the Sibelius Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki.

The instruments in this recording are viola da gamba, after Collichon by Tilman Muthesius (1997), and bow by Luis Emilio Rodriguez Carrington (2007).
