Early music ensemble

An early music ensemble is a group of musicians who perform compositions from the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods, roughly from the 12th to the 18th centuries. They often use historical instruments or modern replicas to recreate the sound and style of the original performances. These ensembles focus on historically informed interpretations, aiming to preserve authenticity in technique and sound. Their performances provide insight into the musical practices of earlier times, offering audiences a window into the rich musical heritage of the past through carefully researched and skilled execution.
