Biography

Boston Baroque, founded in 1973 by American harpsichordist and conductor Martin Pearlman, is the oldest period instrument orchestra in North America. Initially named Banchetto Musicale, the ensemble was renamed Boston Baroque in 1992 when it signed with Telarc Records to produce a series of recordings. The orchestra presents an annual subscription concert series in Greater Boston and has performed at notable venues such as Carnegie Hall, Chicago's Shubert Theatre, and Los Angeles' Disney Hall. The ensemble has received six GRAMMY® Award Nominations, including for its recordings of Monteverdi’s Vespers of 1610 and Bach’s Mass in B Minor.
