Festival Description | The Baroque music festival leads both musicians and audiences on a voyage of musical discovery through the historic sounds of an era gone by. Festival performers virtually travel through time by experimenting with “new” ideas about “old” instruments and music. Aiming to play music today as it sounded in its own time—the Baroque Festival has brought to life a broad spectrum of music written by composers of centuries past by using original and replicated instruments. These instruments communicate with great integrity and power in acoustically appropriate concert halls. The musicians play from facsimile or “urtext” editions, using historical playing styles, including improvisation of ornaments and figured bass. |
