Education and Outreach

Apeiron Baroque is committed to training and inspiring the next generation of performers and music lovers. We have our particular love and interest in the specialisation of Early Music, but we see all genres of music as being equal in ability to touch the heart and convey abstract ideas that are otherwise difficult to express.

In addition to the concert opportunities that we offer to our talented student guest artists, we also present tailored workshops, masterclasses, and presentations for schools, interested amateur and professional musicians.

These events can range from "hands-on" sessions to gain exposure to the specialist concepts of Early Music through to a more generalised music appreciation format. Like our "formal" concerts, we present these events in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.
