Early music ensembles

Early music ensembles are groups of musicians dedicated to performing music from the medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods, roughly spanning from the 12th to the 18th centuries. They aim to recreate the sound and style of historical music using period instruments, which are often different from modern counterparts. These ensembles study historical performance practices, interpretations, and the cultural context of the music they play, providing audiences with an authentic experience of early music. They contribute to a deeper appreciation of music's evolution and bring ancient works to life for contemporary listeners.
