Dear Friends,


In September we have a great programme with great masters of the baroque entitled ”The Unsuspected Contemporaries”.

The 18th Century was full of great composers; Bach, Rameau, Telemann, Handel... We often forget that despite their incredibly distinct styles, these composers lived and worked at the same time. In particular, Rameau, whose style is often described as pre-classical in its conception, was born before the great master Johann Sebastian Bach. Join us and discover how rich and diverse their styles were.

We know you have been keen to help us in the past. Our Friend's Scheme helps us to continue the development of the orchestra. As a friend of IBO you support one of Ireland's top art organisations. In return we offer advanced information and priority booking for our concerts. Visit our patrons section for more information on how to support the Irish Baroque Orchestra. for selected events and many other benefits.

I hope you join us throughout this year and discover the great pieces we have in store for you.
