Welcome
Opera Omnia is an early music group dedicated to rediscovering the rich Spanish musical heritage of the Baroque and Classical periods, avoiding the interpretative clichés of German or Italian music and highlighting the distinctively Spanish characteristics of the music.
Recognized for their excellence, Opera Omnia was nominated in 2022 by REMA (Réseau Européen de Musique Ancienne) for their impressive work in musical heritage restoration. Additionally, they have been awarded by GEMA (Association of Spanish Early Music Groups) as the best 18th-century music ensemble, and for the best production and management for their successful SARAO tour, which has captivated audiences at the most important festivals in Spain.
Directed by violinist Isaac M. Pulet, Opera Omnia not only performs early music but also revives, reinvents, and makes it shine with a new light. If you value authenticity and excellence, Opera Omnia is undoubtedly the group you must know and enjoy.
PREMIOS
Isaac M. Pulet
Conducor and violinist
First professor of baroque violin at the Music Conservatory of Vigo. He finished his studies with the highest qualifications in violin, harmony, counterpoint and acoustics at the Royal Music Conservatory of Madrid, having as tutor the international violinist Hiro Kurosaki. During his time at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague (Netherlands) he studied with Pavlo Beznosiuk and Ryo Terakado. Moreover, he received masterclasses of historicist interpretation with professors such as Lucy van Dael, Anton Steck, Mira Glodeanu, Margaret Foultness, and Kati Debretzeni.
In 2020 he created the School of Polyphony Opera Omnia. In collaboration with Isaac Alonso (professor at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague) and the world-renowned Juan Carlos Asensio, Isaac teaches on subjects covering solmisation or historical solfège, psalmody and modality, renaissance, counterpoint, mensural notation and historical temperaments. Since these subjects are not offered at traditional conservatories, this school of polyphony aspires to become a center of reference.
· "Before the insistent applause and cheers of the public, the performers gave another jovial jácara as a tip, [...], to the delight of a fun and devoted public."
- Simon Andueza. Rhythm Magazine -
"What is clear is that, with groups like Opera Omnia, we are, at last, on the right path for the Spanish 17th century to come out of the obscurantism"
-Edward Torrico. Scherzo Magazine -
“ An excellent concert, of extraordinary musical quality, one of those that animate the public and leave a formidable aftertaste. The cheers endings were awesome.”
- Eduardo Aisa. La Rioja Newspaper-
"The voices were buoyant, especially in the Miserere, highlighting with exquisite neatness each one of the polyphonic nuances of the work."
-Edward Torrico. Scherzo Magazine -
Become a patron
Despite the recognition that the group is beginning to have in Spain, carrying out projects with good financial backing is still quite a difficult task. This is the reason why the little help from people interested in early Spanish music, so abundant and rich, is so necessary to dust it off and make it shine as it did in another time. Become a patron of Opera Omnia on PATREON to help us grow. What we collect is used entirely for the recording of videos and discs of all the music that we have available. In return you will be able to have access to the complete videos of the music that we are rescuing. In addition, we will add your name in the acknowledgments at the end of each video and album. Come by and take a look.
