Barbora Kabátková
Gregorian chantBarbora Kabátková has lived with music since childhood. A major influence on her love of music came from piano lessons under the guidance of Marie Štajnochrová and from her many years as a member of the Kühn Children’s Choir, led by Jiří Chvála. After completing secondary school, she studied Church Music and Choir Conducting at the Faculty of Education of Charles University in Prague and Musicology at the Faculty of Arts of Charles University in Prague, where she is currently continuing her studies as a doctoral candidate specializing in Gregorian chant.
She has always pursued vocal studies privately. Through interpretation courses led by Mario van Altena, Peter Kooij, Julie Hassler, Howard Crook, and Joel Frederiksen, she found her path to early music, to which she now devotes most of her time. She plays medieval harps and the psaltery. She is the artistic director and dramaturg of the highly acclaimed women’s ensemble Tiburtina Ensemble and, since 2025, has also been the artistic director of Renaissance and early Baroque projects of the renowned Belgian ensemble Collegium Vocale Gent.
On Czech and international concert stages, Barbora can be heard collaborating with ensembles such as Collegium Vocale Gent, Cappella Mariana, In Alto, Tasto Solo, Musica Florea, Ricercar Consort, Collegium Marianum, Concerto Melante, Accentus Austria, La Grande Chapelle, Concerto Palatino, and Il Gardellino.
Barbora also enjoys working with contemporary music—she has had the opportunity to perform with Orchestra Berg, the Ostrava Band, Prague Modern, and the NDR Elbphilharmonie Hamburg. She is not afraid to cross into other genres either; she collaborated with Bratři Ebenové on their album *Čas holin* (the song “Routa”) and with the improvisational trio Romanovská–Tichý–Hrubý.
