Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment - Invidious

Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment

Ok, it’s a not very snappy name, so we tend to call ourselves the OAE. The OAE is probably one of the top ‘period instrument’ Orchestras in the world. What does this mean? Well, over the years instruments and techniques have changed. We try to be authentic, by using instruments and playing styles similar to those the composer would have been familiar with.

You might be wondering what difference this makes to the actual sound. Well, it tends to be a more edgy sound than polished modern orchestras. It’s a gutsy and definitely a less ‘polite’ sound. Plus the OAE is well known for its sheer enthusiasm for music, which comes across at every performance.

Our Youtube channel gives our musicians and guest artists a chance to share with you what inspires and motivates them - from the idiosyncrasies of their instruments to the unique approach to the music they perform. We also occasionally post a fun trailer. Happy watching!
