About this Event

Embark on a journey through the cosmos, where mysteries of the universe unfold in all their glory and splendor. The Spheres brings to life the rich mythology and awe of the celestial bodies through captivating masterpieces of the Baroque era. This evocative program tells the story of the universe through the timeless voices of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, featuring works by Lully, Vivaldi, Handel, and Bach.



Lauded as “stylish and innovative” (New York Classical Review), Relic is a period instrument chamber orchestra that brings early music to life through intimate, dramatic, and boldly imaginative performances. With a goal to share historically informed performance with audiences in all 50 states, Relic creates immersive concerts that captivate both seasoned listeners and new audiences alike.

Founded in 2022, Relic has developed a distinctive narrative-driven approach to programming. Each performance is structured around thematic “chapters” that unite diverse repertoire into a compelling musical journey, offering audiences both emotional impact and historical insight. This creative framework has become a signature of the ensemble’s identity, garnering a growing national reputation for originality and accessibility.

In just a few seasons, Relic has self-produced concerts across the country, bringing its unique vision of early music to cities including Washington, D.C., New York City, Kalamazoo (MI), Richmond (VA), Greenbelt (MD), Appleton (WI), Batavia (IL). The ensemble has also appeared on leading concert series, festivals, and presenter stages such as Chamber Music Detroit, the Academy of Early Music, The Cleveland Museum of Art, Indianapolis Early Music Festival, Western Michigan University, and Gotham Early Music Scene. Relic’s 2025-2026 concert season features performances throughout New York, Michigan, Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia, Louisiana, and Ohio.

With its fresh approach to early music, commitment to national reach, and passion for connecting with diverse audiences, Relic is redefining how historical performance can engage and inspire in the 21st century.
