Boston Baroque has announced its 2021-22 season which will include live performances streamed digitally via IDAGIO.

“While we continue presenting great music on period instruments, Boston Baroque is embracing technology as a way to reach new audiences, much as we did when we became the first period instrument orchestra in North America to sign a major record deal with Telarc in 1992. I’m excited about the artistic possibilities that next season holds,” said Director Martin Pearlman in a press release.
