Anacortes Early Music Concert Series – Upcoming Concerts
The Anacortes Early Music Concert Series has brought historically informed performances featuring world-renowned musicians and rising stars to Anacortes for over a decade. Historically informed performance (period performance) is an approach in Western music which adheres to the knowledge, as it is currently known, of the instruments and performance practice of the period in which the music was conceived. Access to examples of earlier musical instruments and historical treatises are the basis on which period performance is formed. Instruments corresponding to the period of the music being performed are used, as well as technique and aesthetics of the period. Anacortes Early Music is a project of the Anacortes Arts Foundation.
