Boasting three virtuoso violinists with three distinct yet complementary musical personalities, Chatham Baroque dives into the rarely performed repertoire of Baroque music for three violins and continuo.

The Baroque Era was a period in European history during the 17th & 18th centuries noted for highly ornate and often extravagant style. Baroque architecture used contrast, detail, grandeur and surprise to achieve a sense of awe. Music of the period was equally elaborate and typically involved much improvisation. The term baroque is a variation of the Portuguese word for an irregularly shaped pearl.
