Descripción: The Vázquez Collection of Historical Musical Instruments of the 16th to the 18th Century.
The Orpheon Founation.
«The collection now contains over 100 instruments (viola da gamba, viola d'amore, violin, viola, violoncello, violone, baryton) dating mostly from 1560 to 1780, all restored to their original playing conditions and placed at the disposal of members of the Orpheon Orchestra, Orpheon Consort, students of the University for Music and the Performing Arts Vienna and professional musicians all over Europe for concerts, recordings and study purposes. It is the living acoustical heritage - the sounds that these instruments produce for those living today - that interests us, and not their mere decorative flair as objets trouvés from aristocratic residences from our distant past.»
