Please come and join us
Are you an instrumentalist who
relishes making music with others?
enjoys hard work and fun as a part of music making?
can make a serious commitment to an ensemble?
Then maybe you would feel at home as a member of sligo baroque orchestra.
we have high musical standards, have weekly rehearsals and perform around ten times a year (often as part of the monthly series of Informal Music Afternoons that take place in The Model, Sligo the first Sunday of each month. When playing music from the 17th, or 18th centuries we aim to perform in an historically informed way; we use baroque bows, but are not a “period performance” ensemble.
We are always pleased to hear from instrumentalists who would like to join. There is no audition, simply contact us, and we will suggest when to start attending rehearsals. It will become obvious quite soon whether we are an ensemble you can enjoy part of. There is no fee for membership other than making a serious commitment.
We perform mainly music from the Baroque and Early Classical eras but also enjoy the challange of performing contemporary music, and music from other genres.
We also welcome approaches from singers with a view to possible performances.
If you are interested come and talk to us at the end of a performance, or contact by email at sligobaroque@gmail.com
