Led by harpsichordist Jeannette Sorrell, the renowned Cleveland-based Apollo’s Fire plays Baroque music on period instruments with an authenticity and passion Gramophone called “a blend of scholarship and visceral intensity.” Founded by Sorrell in 1992, the orchestra, chamber choir, and seven vocal soloists perform one of their signature works: Monteverdi’s Vespers, the glorious Venetian masterpiece that bridged Renaissance and Baroque styles in what is considered the grandest work of religious music before Bach.
