description Santiago Kastner founded Os Menestréis de Lisboa in 1960, after over a decade of teaching harpsichord and early music performance at the Conservatório in Lisbon. This ensemble specialised in the performance of early chamber music using modern wind instruments. German Baroque and Georg Philipp Telemann were the core of their repertoire, but Kastner’s personal interest in the recovery of unknown Iberian repertoires, completed the agenda of this pioneer ensemble in Portugal. Between 1964 and 1972, coinciding with the peak of the HIP movement internationally, Os Menestréis de Lisboa carried out a stable concert activity. On the one hand, they broadcast over fifty radio programs on the Portuguese Emissora Nacional and, on the other hand, they recorded several sixteenth to eighteenth-century instrumental works released, in 1971, in two LPs of the collection Monumentos Históricos de la Música Española. These recordings, as well as the collection of Emissora Nacional’s programmes kept in the personal legacy of Santiago Kastner in the Biblioteca Nacional and his collection of annotated editions kept in the Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas in Lisbon, are key sources for this article, where I propose a critical analysis of the interpretative criteria applied to the performed repertoire.
