LA Baroque Players:
Organized in the Spring of 1983, the group is recognized
as an important early music ensemble. All share a common interest in bringing to audiences definitive
performances of early music.
The Los Angeles Baroque Players perform on period instruments or replicas of instruments used in the 17th and 18th centuries. The effects produced are subtler, less harsh than those created by modern instruments. The one
keyed transverse flute is crafted of wood, the violin is strung with gut strings and is played with a baroque bow, the baroque cello is also strung with gut strings and is played with a baroque bow as well. The harpsichords they use are based on historical prototypes by makers Roberts & Brazier of the Harpsichord Center.
