Apollo's Fire, named after the classical god of music and the sun, is an acclaimed Baroque orchestra based in Cleveland, Ohio, founded in 1992 by the award-winning harpsichordist and conductor Jeannette Sorrell. Sorrell's vibrant leadership and creative vision have propelled the ensemble to international recognition, establishing it as one of the preeminent period-instrument ensembles. Apollo's Fire prides itself on presenting historically-informed performances that bring a fresh, dynamic approach to baroque and classical repertoire, often exploring the crossover with folk and early music traditions.
Their discography is reflective of their expansive artistic curiosity, encompassing a broad range of canonical and less familiar baroque compositions. Noteworthy releases include the dramatic storytelling in "Handel: Israel in Egypt, HWV 54," the baroque refinement in “Heavenly Bach - Arias & Cantatas of J.S. Bach,” the multicultural exploration in “O Jerusalem! City of Three Faiths,” and their seasonally festive offering, “Christmas on Sugarloaf Mountain.” With a particular affinity for the works of Vivaldi and Bach, as seen in "Vivaldi: The Four Seasons" and "J. S. Bach: St. John Passion," Apollo’s Fire also delves into thematic projects like "Sephardic Journey," which unearth the musical riches of different cultural traditions. Their richly emotive and technically exquisite performances have not only delighted audiences but have also garnered critical acclaim and a strong international presence, reinforcing their stature in the world of classical music.
