ENSEMBLE CHACONNE enthralls audiences with dramatic period-instrument performances of music from Renaissance and Baroque Europe. Their repertoire ranges from well-known masterpieces to recently discovered works. Peter H. Bloom (Renaissance and Baroque flutes); carol Lewis (viola da gambe); and Olav Chris Henriksen (lute, theorobo, and early guitar) bring exhilaration and theatrical intensity to an intimate chamber setting.
Founded in 1985, ENSEMBLE CHACONNE concertizes extensively, with tours in England, Ontario, and throughout the United States. The ensemble has performed at London's National Gallery, Atlanta's famed Spivey Hall; the Royal Shakespeare Company's Residency at Davidson Colleg;, the venerable Edison Theatre in St. Louis; The National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa; the Bach Festival Society of Winter Park, Florida; Boston's legendary Jordan Hall; and The Yale Center for British Art.
The event is part of the Centre Stage Series - A Complimentary Event.
