Ensemble Diderot, undoubtedly one of today’s most interesting and original chamber music groups, was founded in 2008 by violinist Johannes Pramsohler. It dedicates itself to the exploration and performance of the repertoire of theseventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and performs on original instruments. The ensemble is based in Paris and owes its name to the French author, thinker, and philosopher Denis Diderot.

The group is regularly praised for its energetic and virtuoso playing and is particularly known for unearthing rare gems of musicthat has not been heard for over 300 years.
