The Twelfth Night Ensemble is coming back to Pittsburgh! Chatham Baroque is presenting the Twelfth Night Ensemble on Sunday, October 20th at the Calvary Episcopal Church. The founding members of the group, violinist Rachell Ellen Wong, and harpsichordist David Belkovski, spoke about how they first met as students in the Historical Performance division of The Julliard School. They founded the ensemble in 2021 and have since traveled all over the United States performing beautiful Baroque music. They discuss Handel's fabulous cantata Apollo e Dafne that they will perform with baritone Roderick Williams and soprano Nola Richardson for their upcoming concert. Rachell and David also highlight their inspiration for studying classical baroque music, and how visiting Italy is a life-changing experience.
