FOUR NATIONS ENSEMBLE

For over four decades, The Four Nations Ensemble has brought together leading soloists, generational front-runners of period vocal and instrumental performances. Through their innovative programming, they have developed a diverse audience and are a leading presence on the early music scene, performing at major houses and festivals including The Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center, The Boston Early Music Festival, and New York's Mostly Mozart, among many others.

Founded in 1986, The Four Nations Ensemble brings together soloists, frontrunners from several generations, who are leading exponents of period instrument and vocal performance. With a core ensemble of soprano, harpsichord or fortepiano, 2 violin, flute, and cello, Four Nations’ repertory runs from the Renaissance through Viennese Classical masterpieces of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven.
