ABOUT THE NORTH CAROLINA BAROQUE ORCHESTRA

The North Carolina Baroque Orchestra (NCBO), a period instrument ensemble based in Davidson, NC, was co-founded in the summer of 2011 by sisters Frances Blaker and Barbara Blaker Krumdieck. Ms. Blaker, a virtuoso recorder player and internationally acclaimed teacher residing in the SF Bay Area, is artistic director. Executive director and cellist, Ms. Krumdieck, lives in Cornelius, NC.

NCBO frequently performs larger works from the baroque era with choirs and performs regularly with S.C. Bach, Davidson College, Wake Forest University Choirs, Trinity Cathedral Singers, St. Paul’s Episcopal-Wilmington and many other choral groups throughout the Southeastern United States. Recent performances include Handel’s Messiah, Bach St. John Passion, B Minor Mass, Magnificat, St. Matthew Passion, Easter Oratorio, Christmas Oratorio and numerous Cantatas, Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas, Handel’s Judas Maccabaeus and Ode for St. Cecelia, Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu Nostri and many other great works from the Baroque period.

The orchestra has played many instrumental sets under the baton of Ms. Blaker, including Brilliant Concerti of the Baroque, Glorious Orchestral Music of J.S. Bach and his Contemporaries, and Splendid Music from the Time of King George III and Queen Charlotte. NCBO held its “Orchestra Building” retreat at The Mountain Retreat & Learning Center in Highlands, NC in July 2024.

Chamber music is an exciting part of NCBO’s busy concert schedule, and we look forward to Bringing New Life to Old Music for you!

NCBO is a 501c3 nonprofit organization composed of professional musicians specializing in historically informed performance of 17th & 18th century music. To learn more, or contact Ms. Krumdieck at .
