The Fondazione Academia Montis Regalis is an Italian cultural foundation promoting baroque and classical orchestral training based in the town of Mondovì since 1992.
In 1994 the Foundation created the Academia Montis Regalis Orchestra to promote the Baroque and Classical repertoire from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries according to historical criteria and by using original instruments.
Since the beginning, it was conducted by the most important specialists in the Early Music field: Ton Koopman, Jordi Savall, Christopher Hogwood, Reinhardt Goebel, Monica Huggett, Luigi Mangiocavallo, Enrico Gatti, Alessandro De Marchi, to mention but a few.
From 2010 to 2018 the Academia Montis Regalis has been the resident orchestra of the prestigious Innsbrucker Festwochen Festival, performing every year a Baroque opera as well as various chamber music projects.
The first two operas performed at the Landestheater in Innsbruck were L’Olimpiade by Pergolesi and Flavius Bertaridus by Telemann, both acclaimed and recorded live by Sony Classics.
