The Ensemble Cappella Mediterranea was founded in 2005 by Leonardo Garcia Alarcón. As indicated by his name, this ensemble is originally impassioned by the music of the Mediterranean basin, and intends to propose another approach of the Latin Baroque music.

10 years later, the repertory of Cappella Mediterranea considerably widened. With more than 45 concerts per year, the ensemble explores, amongst others, the madrigal, the polyphonic motet and opera. A mixt which gives a very particular style, pervaded by a rare complicity between the director and his musicians. The enthusiastic encounters of Cappella Mediterranea with some neglected scores, its original reading of the repertory, its concerts mixed with theatre and dance and it’s recordings are highly regarded. The success in 2010 of Il Diluvio Universale by Michelangelo Falvetti was an outstanding moment. It widened considerably the audience of the ensemble and of Leonardo García Alarcón.

Cappella Mediterranea performs in prestigious venues and festivals: Ambronay, Festival of Saint Denis near Paris, Victoria Hall in Geneva, the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, the Château de Versailles, the Konzerthaus in Vienna, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Carnegie Hall in New-York, the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires…The list is endless.

Cappella Mediterranea won great acclaim in 2013 at the opera Festival of Aix-en-Provence with Cavalli’s opera Elena. Since then, Cappella Mediterranea is considered as one of the main ensemble for opera productions. Opera projects have followed one another in recent years: Handel's Alcina in 2016, Cavalli’s Il Giasone in 2017 and Purcell’s King Arthur in 2018 at the Opéra des Nations with the Grand Théâtre de Genève before Medea and the Indes Galantes at the Grand Théâtre de Genève, recently restored in 2019. In 2016, Cappella introduced Cavalli to the repertory of the National Opera of Paris at the Palais Garnier with Eliogabalo, which was also given at the Opera of Amsterdam in 2017. In 2018 the ensemble entered the Residence at the Dijon Opera House for several seasons with a series of unpublished works such as Draghi's El Prometeo or Francesco Sacrati's in june 2018 and La finta pazza in February 2019.

In 2019 the ensemble is also invited to celebrate a double anniversary at the Paris Opera with Les Indes Galantes of Rameau at the Opéra Bastille on the occasion of the building's 30th anniversary but especially on the occasion of the 350th anniversary of the Royal Academy of Music.
Since 2020, the ensemble adapts its productions to the health crisis. In December 2020, the opera Il Palazzo Incantato, produced at the Opera de Dijon, was maintained despite the absence of the public, and its video recording, that was streamed online, was a great success.

The discography of Cappella Mediterranea includes around thirty titles on various labels: Ricercar, Naïve, Ambronay Editions and Alpha Classics.

Lastly was released the recording of Draghi’s El Prometeo on Alpha Classics in march 2020, and Rebirth on Sony classical in march 2021, a collaboration between the soprano Sonya Yoncheva and Leonardo Garcia Alarcón and its ensemble. In 2021 will be released Lamenti & Sospiri - a collection of madrigals by Sigismondo d’India - on Ricercar, and Monteverdi’s Orfeo on Alpha Classics.
