Historic Orchestral Performance

Historical orchestral performance typically refers to the interpretation and rendition of classical music that seeks to recapture the styles, sounds, and techniques of the era in which the music was originally composed and performed. This approach often employs period-appropriate instruments and performance practices to bring a sense of authenticity to the works of composers such as Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, and others. Conductors and orchestras who specialize in this genre aim to provide audiences with an experience that is as close as possible to the auditory and artistic sensibilities of historical periods, eschewing modern interpretations for a more researched and faithful re-creation of the music's original context, phrasing, tempo, and dynamics as understood from historical evidence.
