| Biography | London Baroque was formed in 1978 and is regarded world-wide as one of the foremost exponents of baroque chamber music, enabling its members to devote their professional lives to the group. A regular fifty or so performances a year has given the group a cohesion and professionalism akin to that of a permanent string quartet. The ensemble's repertoire spans a period from the end of the 16th century up to Mozart and Haydn, with works of virtually unknown composers next to familiar masterpieces of the Baroque and early Classical eras.
London Baroque continues to give vital and enriching performances with all the technical perfection and musical maturity their public has come to expect. They have performed in most of the major European festivals, and appeared frequently on TV and radio the world over. London Baroque is a regular visitor at the festivals of Salzburg, Bath, Beaune, Innsbruck, Utrecht, York, Bachwoche Ansbach and Bachwoche Stuttgart. London Baroque has appeared on television in England, France, Germany, Belgium, Austria, Holland, Spain, Sweden, Poland, Estonia and Japan. |
