Chatham Baroque is a dynamic early music ensemble based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, known for bringing the music of the Baroque era to life with energy and style. Specializing in 17th- and 18th-century repertoire performed on period instruments, the group was founded in 1990 and has earned a reputation for combining scholarly sensibility with vibrant, engaging performances. Core members include Andrew Fouts (baroque violin), Patricia Halverson (viola da gamba), and Scott Pauley (theorbo and baroque guitar), who together create a spirited and intimate sound that highlights the rich textures and rhythmic vitality of Baroque music.
Chatham Baroque tours internationally and has released numerous recordings acclaimed for both their meticulous historical interpretation and emotional warmth. Projects like The Undiscovered Viola d’amore and Sol y Sombra showcase their commitment to exploring both well-known and overlooked gems of the Baroque repertoire. Outside of performance, they’re also committed to education, offering workshops and outreach programs to foster a love and understanding of early music in modern audiences.
