Canowindra Baroque Music Festival

A Burst of Baroque

The Australian Brandenburg Orchestra

Friday 27th - Sunday 29th September 2024

Welcome to Baroquefest! Australia's boutique baroque music festival in the heart of central western New South Wales. 

Join the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra at the Canowindra Baroque Music Festival this September for A Burst of Baroque. A series of 5 concerts will take you from Berlin to Bologna and feature Principal musicians of the Orchestra performing works by Vivaldi, Handel and Teleman and more.

“what stands out at concert after concert is the impression that this bunch of musicians is having a really good time. They look at each other and smile and laugh... there’s a warmth and sense of fun not often associated with classical performance.”
– The Sydney Morning Herald

“like stepping back in time, as the sounds of period instruments resurrect Baroque and classical works with reverence and authority”
– The Australian

Live, vulnerable and raw, the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra is unapologetic in our mission to push the limits of experience in the celebration of past and present-day human creativity. We’re here to challenge ideas and reinterpret the icons of classical music for the 21st century, creating new audiences to ensure this cultural heritage lives on in the hearts and minds of new generations. 
Reigniting early music from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries on rare instruments of the period, that is where our faith for tradition begins and ends. Loved for our personality, warmth and spirit, Australia’s flagship period orchestra is for the bold explorers who are unsatisfied having their expectations met with the tropes of pomp and predictability. Join us in Canowindra for this unforgettable weekend.
