About Atlanta Baroque Orchestra

A Baroque chamber orchestra, in the modern era, is tasked with taking music all but relegated to a museum and breathing new life into it. This is what the Atlanta Baroque Orchestra can do. While our musicians draw on years of academic research and scholarship to restore the music to its original, authentic style, they never lose sight of how much fun it is, what a joyful and spiritual experience playing it should be. It swings. It grooves. It rocks. No, it gigues. This is immediately obvious when Artistic Director Julie Andrijeski strikes up the ensemble. The orchestra comes to life with irrepressible vitality and joie de vivre. The musicians move, meaningfully. In the audience, heads bob. Toes tap (softly). Handel, Corelli, Bach, Scarlatti, Vivaldi: whether it’s instrumental suites and concertos, vocal and choral cantatas, or the occasional solo or smaller-ensemble chamber works, the Atlanta Baroque Orchestra distinguishes itself by making the music breathe, dance, soar.
