Singapore's homegrown baroque ensemble makes its debut! Dedicated to exploring the wealth of baroque music repertory on period instruments, Red Dot Baroque seeks to invigorate its performances with the drama, rhetoric and gestures inherent in the music, and to rediscover these pieces in the context of today. Immerse yourself in the unique soundworld of 18th-century instruments, as members of the ensemble take turns to share the limelight in this opening concert.
If you have any burning questions for Red Dot Baroque, please stay back for a brief post-concert Q&A.
