Dutch Baroque Orchestra
More than 3.5k times played this month
Dutch Baroque Orchestra is a professional orchestra and consists of a permanent core of young (internationally) renowned baroque specialists; musicians of the highest level. Versatile, inspiring and innovative, dedicated to the music of the 17th and 18th centuries. In addition to this permanent core of musicians, the orchestra is supplemented by young musicians who have (just) left the conservatory.
The main goal of the orchestra is to perform known and unknown early music, with the broadest attention to authentic performance practice. To this end, source research, highly qualified musicians, (copies of) authentic instruments, 'Urtext' scores and a specialised artistic director are indispensable. That is the basis for getting as close as possible to a (authentic) performance that is true to the score, rooted in scientific research, and thus to the most intense experience of it for both performers and listeners.
