Period Instruments

Follow

The "period instruments" genre features performances of classical music using historically accurate instruments and techniques from the time the music was composed. Artists in this genre emphasize authenticity, employing gut strings, natural horns, and harpsichords to recreate the tonal colors and expressive nuances of earlier music. Ensembles often follow historically informed performance (HIP) practices, with interpretations shaped by historical research. The sound is typically more transparent and less forceful than modern orchestral performances, offering a unique immediacy and intimacy.
