Concerto Baroque brings together five accomplished musicians of the Pacific northwest to present chamber works by Baroque masters featuring soprano, violin and trumpet supported by continuo. The programs are chosen to create an entertaining and cohesive mix of music from the Baroque era.

Concerto Baroque is Linda Tsatsanis, soprano,
Stephen Creswell, violin, Judson Scott, trumpet,
Nathan Whittaker, cello, and Sheila Bristow, continuo. Individually we have performed through
out North America for established ensembles such as Portland Baroque, Seattle Baroque, Baroque Northwest, Seattle Pro Musica, Rebel, Tafelmusic and St. Mary’s Chamber Orchestra.

Concerto Baroque performs on the instruments
current when the music was written and in the styles
the composers would have assumed. For example, the trumpet is a valve-less instrument and the violin and cello are strung with gut strings, creating the warm tonal pallet called for by the music. This allows the music to jump to life in ways difficult or impossible to mimic on modern instruments.

Concerto Baroque is available for your concert series, special event or service. Our site provides information about the performers, booking and prepared programs with sound clips from live performance.
