Arcadia Players - New England's Period Instrument Ensemble

AP Logo
Arcadia Players embraces 
historical performance 
practice to illuminate 
and invigorate the 
great Western heritage 
of vocal and 
instrumental music.

Who we are

We are a professional ensemble of musicians founded in 1989 by Margaret Irwin-Brandon, with the invaluable assistance of our founding patron T. Marc Futter. We present a series of concerts each year in several communities in western Massachusetts, performing chamber music, opera, orchestral and choral repertoire, including highly acclaimed performances of Handel's Messiah. We also regularly collaborate with vocal ensembles throughout New England, at institutions such as Dartmouth College, Mount Holyoke College, Yale University, and the Hartt School, as well as Commonwealth Opera and the Connecticut Early Music Festival.

Arcadia Players is in residence at the Arthur F. Kinney Center for Interdisciplinary Renaissance Studies at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. 

For basic information on our status as a 501(c)(03) public charity see GuideStar, the National Database of Nonprofit Organizations. If you need more information, please contact us directly.
