Previous concerts (still available online through June 30, 2022 by subscription):

October 2: Dramatic ReturnProg 1

First Parish, Sudbury and Online

Thrill to two epic tales of reunification in this all-French program. The Israelites make a miraculous return to their homeland in Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre’s cantata Le Passage sur la mer rouge. Star-crossed lovers are reunited in the land of immortals in Clerambault’s cantata Leandre et Hero. Clerambault’s Sonata La Felicité and an overture by Charpentier complete this season opener. With soprano Teresa Wakim.

Prog 2December 18: Sounding Joy

Trinity Lutheran Church, Worcester and Online

Classical works to celebrate the season, including Mozart’s Exsultate Jubilate in its less often heard Christmas version. The program also includes rarely-performed musical gems— charming pastorellas by Bernhard Hupfeld and Gregor Joseph Werner, a folksy Christmas aria by Joseph Haydn and Leopold Mozart's “Musical Sleigh Ride.”

With soprano Jessica Petrus.

DD SudDelving Deeper Episode 4:
Sites and Sounds of Early Sudbury
February 12, 2022, Online only

Musicians of the Old Post Road teams up with the Sudbury Historical Society to explore some of history-rich Sudbury’s most fascinating historical sites. Historical Society members offer brief talks at each location, providing a richer understanding of each site’s history and key personages in Sudbury’s past. The ensemble performs modern-day premieres of fascinating, rediscovered works by 18th-century Massachusetts composers and arrangers at each site, bringing this history to life!

March 12: Earthly BaroqueProg 3

First Parish, Wayland and Online

Our beloved program that became a critically-acclaimed CD recording! Transport yourself to a world of wild wonders with Vivaldi’s Goldfinch concerto, Biber’s colorful Sonata Representativa, Werner’s stormy November suite, and the ensemble’s reconstruction of J. F. Lampe’s playful Cuckoo Concerto.

Prog 4April 30: Taking Inspiration

Harvard-Epworth Church, Cambridge and Online

As the saying goes, "imitation is the greatest form of flattery.” Whether subliminal or intentional, Handel’s borrowing of musical ideas from works by Corelli, Telemann, Rameau, Kaiser, and Scarlatti is on display in his concertos, overtures, and sonatas on this program. This unique concert celebrates the impetus of the creative spirit of all these composers while juxtaposing Handel's reworking of their ideas in delightful and inventive ways!

Hear the origins of the “Hallelujah Chorus” from Handel’s Messiah in a fugue by Corelli. Also featured is a Telemann concerto for three violins that sparked Handel’s lovely and lively Adagio and Allegro for flute and strings, HWV 338; and one of Rameau’s Pièces de Clavecin en Concerts for harpsichord, flute, and violin, which Handel reimagines in his overture to Joseph and his Brethren.
