Australian Baroque is a national ensemble formed at its core by WA-based artists. World-class players with a spirit of investigation and historical inspiration, bringing you stunning classical music programs, live concerts, and immersive projects. 

Being part of the WA community is central to the aims of Australian Baroque. This is not just an orchestra for the concert hall.  Our aim is to build significant and long-lasting ties with both regional and metropolitan communities, including outer metro regions such as Kwinana.
