Repertoire - Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century

Below you will find a complete list of all composers and their works that we have played since our founding in 1981. The repertoire stems from early Baroque through the Classical period until into the 19th century. Composers often represented in our programs are Purcell, Rameau, Bach, Handel, CPE Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Schumann and Brahms. In order to perform the compositions of these masters, the orchestra uses different sets of instruments and plays in varying pitches, always striving to recreate the style and sound the composer had imagined.
