The Tallahassee Bach Parley performs music of the Baroque era (approx. 1600-1750) using period instruments. We also present a competition and concert called Kids Go for B’roque and run the Bach Parley String Academy music school. We present Baroque music as it was performed hundreds of years ago with a fresh sound immediately accessible today. The Bach Parley’s musicians – local professional performers and teachers, FSU faculty, and college students – are trained in historically informed performance. Many Bach Parley musicians also perform in Baroque music groups around the country, such as in Atlanta, New York, Texas, and Boston. The French word “parley” means discussion, and a key element of Bach Parley concerts is the commentary from our music director to discuss historical context for the composers and their world and to offer suggestions about what to listen for in the music. These conversational remarks create a relaxed concert atmosphere and connect the audience with the performers.
