Welcome to the website of La Ritirata, a historically-informed performance ensemble founded and directed by Baroque cello player Josetxu Obregón. Recording artists on the Glossa label, the ensemble regularly gives concerts in Europe, the Americas and Asia.
What was the first composition ever written for solo violoncello? What was composed before Bach created his extraordinary suites for solo cello? These questions drove the cellist Josetxu Obregón to devote himself to the beginnings of solo literature for his instrument.
