Where does this music come from?

Join us to enjoy chamber pieces by some of the great 18th century composers – Telemann, Boismortier, Bach, and others. The Odd Pearl Consort is a quartet integrated by a traverse flute, a violin, a viola da gamba and a harpsichord. They play replicas of instruments built in the Baroque era, which differ significantly from their modern counterparts. You’ll enjoy the music with the special sonority that the composers intended, and will get an opportunity to see the instruments up close and personal and chat with the performers.
