Stile Galante is a Dutch-Italian cultural project devoted to Italian music of the 18th century, started in 2010. The project aims to merge academic research and performance, and focuses on vocal music.

We think that devoting our attentions to usually ignored or misunderstood repertoire can bring back to the audience pages of rare beauty and inspire musicians and audience to get continually in touch with musical languages and taste today usually forcibly adapted to unhistorical expectations.

The ensemble records for Pan Classics and Glossa, and is conducted by Stefano Aresi.

Stile Galante promotes university conferences, started its own publishing company for scholarly books, and offers cultural events in collaboration with schools and public and private cultural institutes.

The main soul of the ensemble are the singers, the director, and the continuo group: around this core we develop all our projects.
