His ensemble, IL SUONAR PARLANTE ORCHESTRA,[5] IL SUONAR PARLANTE ORCHESTRA / Web site is devoted to a new investigation of the early music and classical repertoire as well as to the creation of new musical realities (see the page and link in this site). The ensemble has also performed with important jazz players such as Kenny Wheeler, Uri Caine, Jim Black, Don Byron, Markus Stockhausen, Nguyen Lê and Achille Succi; jazz and blues singers such as Cristina Zavalloni and Barbara Walker; pop singers like Vinicio Capossela; and flamenco stars such as Carmen Linares. Several jazzmen and composers have written new music for Il Suonar Parlante. The ensemble also collaborates with traditional Asian musicians like the Afghan virtuosi of "Ensemble Kaboul" (Khaled Arman).
Ghielmi's collaboration with traditional players and in particular with the Sardinian traditional singers of the Cuncordu de Orosei, which lead him to a new insight in the European ancient music, is documented in the film The Heart of Sound, BFMI (Salzburg-Hollywood).[6] He has made many recordings, winning many prizes (for labels such as Winter&Winter, Harmonia Mundi, Teldec, Decca, Sony, Auvidis, Opus 111, Passacaille, Alpha Outhere) covering all the musical styles and the entire viol repertoire; four CDs are dedicated to the virtuosic gamba concerti by Johan Gottlieb Graun (1702-1771). Recently published (2018) is the Cd Gypsy Baroque with the singer Graciela Gibelli, the cymbalist Marcel Comendant, and the violinist improviser Stanislav Palúch.[7] and “Le Secret de Monsieur Marais”, (outhere).
In addition to his activity as an instrumentalist and conductor, he has often been in demand as an arranger and composer. The cd The Passion of Musick (with Dorothee Oberlinger), dedicated to "celtic" music and containing his arrangements and compositions won in 2015 the ECHO Klassic Preis.[8]
Vittorio Ghielmi, besides his professorship at the Mozarteum Universität in Salzburg, regularly gives master-classes in Academies and Universities all over the world (Juilliard School, Royal College London, Sincletica University Barcelona, Conservatoire Royale Brussels, Akademie der Kunst Berlin etc.). In the "Politecnico della cultura, delle arti e delle lingue" in Milan, he has organised series of conferences and concerts focused on the early music instrumental techniques and their survival in "ethnic" musical traditions. Since 2018 he organises with Mozarteum university and the Accademia Chigiana (Siena) a series of Concerts and Masterclasses for classical players approaching ancient music (Chigiana-Mozarteum Baroque Project https://www.chigiana.org/summer-academy/#mozarteum). He is artistic director (team) of the ORA Festival for early music in Salzburg. He has published studies and articles on music and previously unpublished scores (Fuzeau, Minkoff, Ut Orpheus), as well as a method for viola da gamba known throughout the world (with Paolo Biordi).[9] He is currently publishing a complete edition of Johann Gottlieb Graun's Viola da Gamba concertos and directs the musical research of "Libroforte-Fine Music Editions" and a musicological book of the "secret signs„ of Marin Marais in collaboration with Christoph Urbanetz. Vittorio Ghielmi plays a bass viol made by Michel Colichon, Paris 1688 and one made by Luc Breton (Morges 2007).
