Music at St. Paul's: ABENDMUSIK with NORTH CAROLINA BAROQUE

For our Annual Candlelight Concert, members of the North Carolina Baroque Orchestra will be joined by members of the St. Paul’s Choir to present Abendmusik. This concert will be modeled after the 17th century musical series that were held at St. Mary’s in Lübeck, Germany.

The North Carolina Baroque Orchestra (NCBO), a period instrument ensemble, was co-founded in 2011 by sisters and musical collaborators Frances Blaker and Barbara Blaker Krumdieck for the purpose of providing orchestral and chamber music opportunities for musicians specializing in baroque performance practice.It was clear from their first concerts in 2011 that there was a need for NCBO. The musicians were hungry for an opportunity to play baroque orchestral music on period instruments at a professional level, and the audiences were excited by their exuberant, refreshing and inspiring performances.The North Carolina Baroque Orchestra maintains a goal of presenting refined, stylistic, artistic and fun performances, engaging both the players and the listeners in the stories and historical context behind the music.
