Introduction

The Baroque Collective is an informal grouping of the UK's most talented and experienced period instrument performers and singers. It is based in Lewes, East Sussex.

Directed by conductor and singer John Hancorn and violinist Alison Bury, members of The Baroque Collective share a passion for intimate chamber music, opera and song. They offer an enticing and flexible range of programmes from Locke and Purcell to Mozart and from trios to major works with chamber chorus. 

Recent performances include Handel’s Messiah with the East Sussex Bach Choir and Bach’s St John Passion with the Esterházy Chamber Choir in Lewes and also Purcell’s ‘King Arthur’ with the Fletching Singers in June 2008, ‘The Cares of Lovers’ at the Uckfield Festival and ‘Acis and Galatea’ at the Montpelier and Powis Festival, Brighton, both in July 2008.
