Pittsburgh Baroque Ensemble Plays Free Concert in Rocky River

Mon 3/2 @ 7:30PM

Pittsburgh’s Chatham Baroque, founded in 1990, focuses on performing music from the Middle Ages through the early classical period. Its core members — violinist Andrew Fouts, viola de gamba player Patricia Halverson, and theorbo/baroque guitar player Scott Pauley — draw on guest musicians and collaborate with dance, opera and theater groups in their hometown and acts as an emissary for baroque music in Pittsburgh, hosting other ensembles and presenting educational programs.

This week, they’ll be heading west though, all the way to Rocky River where they’ll be the guests of the Rocky River Chamber Music Society at the West Shore Unitarian Universalist Church. Their program there will include music by composers from the mid-17th through mid-18th centuries: by J.S. Back, Dietrich Buxtehude, Carl Friedrich Abel, Johann Schmelzer, Phillipp Erlebach, Heinrich Ignaz Biber, and George Frideric Handel.

As always, the concert is free and open to all, and will also be streamed on RRCMS’s YouTube channel.
