Experience Irish Baroque Orchestra live on December 18th
The Irish Baroque Orchestra will perform at Wigmore Hall, London on December 18, 2026. The orchestra specialises in historically informed performance of Baroque and early Classical music, typically employing instruments and performance practices reflective of the 17th and 18th centuries. Their approach prioritises stylistic authenticity, focusing on ornamentation, articulation, and ensemble balance characteristic of the period. The repertoire frequently includes works by composers such as Handel, Vivaldi, and Corelli, alongside lesser-known figures from the Baroque era.
Wigmore Hall opened in 1901, funded by Charles Beauchamp Ames to provide a dedicated recital space – a need identified by pianist Frederic Chopin’s student, Karol Mikuli. It quickly established itself as a premier venue for chamber music and song recitals. Unlike many larger concert halls, Wigmore Hall was intentionally designed with exceptional acoustics specifically for intimate performances; its relatively small capacity (approximately 544 seats) contributes to this renowned sound quality. Throughout its history, the hall has hosted performances by virtually every major classical musician of the 20th and 21st centuries and maintains a strong commitment to supporting emerging artists alongside established names.
