Cork Baroque Players

 

Programme

Cork Baroque Players swing through a madcap medley of seventeenth and eighteenth-century music, with a chance to learn some cheeky historic songs, dance a step or two, and learn the life-threatening art of the Baroque orchestra conductor.

Made up of some of Cork’s finest specialists in historically-informed music, the Cork Baroque Players bring the past to life in a tongue-in-cheek skim across the lighter sides of history. Discover music inspired by Jonathan Swift’s satirical tales, hear dances to cure a tarantula bite, and leave the present at the door for an evening of time-travelling amusement.

With music from Telemann, Uccellini, Merula, Schmelzer, Lully, and more.

Presented in partnership with Nano Nagle Place and with the support of the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts Gaeltacht, Sport, & Media
