What is Early Music?
Early Music
is music from the mid 18th century and before, music from the Baroque, Renaissance, and Middle Ages. It is the most beautiful, enriching, exciting -- and ironically the freshest -- music you will ever hear performed by some of the best musicians anywhere.
Early Music is enchantment!
