The Regency Ball presented by Parish House Baroque

Lace up your dancing slippers and dust off your reticule—Parish House Baroque opens the season with a musical promenade into the early 19th century. Featuring elegant dance tunes and genteel chamber selections from the Regency era, this afternoon evokes the refined charm of Almack’s Assembly Rooms and Jane Austen’s drawing rooms. Try some of the most popular dances of this bygone era with a live dance caller; whether you dance, or simply observe, the afternoon will be great fun. A reception follows, where guests can mingle like members of the ton.

Parish House Baroque draws upon varied historical sources of performance practice from the Renaissance through the early Classical period and uses them to inform our interpretations, bringing the music to life.

We strive to expand the community of people who experience and love early music performances and foster a new generation of audiences through engaging performances, outreach, and dialogue. With a core formation of baroque violin, recorders, baroque cello, and harpsichord/organ, Parish House Baroque continues to strengthen our reputation for highly expressive performances and compelling programming.
