SANTA CRUZ BAROQUE FESTIVAL

To promote music education through a concert series of primarily 17th and 18th century music, attempting to present it as close as possible to the original preformances. We program both familiar and lesser know works, engaging musicians who specialize in early music, many from central California as well as national and international artists. We also occasionally collaborate with other non-profit organizations on larger projects. We also conduct a Youth Chamber Music Competition for groups up to high school age.
