Handel Period Instrument Orchestra – Past Concerts

The Handel Period Instrument Orchestra, organized specifically to perform in partnership with the Handel Choir, is founded on principles of historical performance practices. It consists of professional musicians who specialize in playing instruments constructed near the time of the music's composition, or replicas. It is truly exciting to recapture the distinctive sounds closer to what was in the composer’s ears, and we are pleased that our organization, grounded in the performance aesthetic of baroque music through our namesake composer, George Frideric Handel, is performing with these considerations in the forefront.
