Our organization was founded on our primary value of keeping the harpsichord alive. Vitality, excitement and expressivity define our performances. Improvising and taking chances delight us. If you're looking for early music performers with technique to burn, fire in their bellies and belief in music performance as the living art it's meant to be, The Queen's Chamber Band will thrill you!

Don't miss our "Bach in March" Festival!!

Composer Joseph Fennimore contributed the following quote, found while reading the journals of Denton Welch:

"....Have you ever tho't that a large harpsichord played by a master or mistress is like a large very beautiful cat unsheathing its claws, pawing the air, mouthing. miawlling, waving ostrich-plume tail, gnashing white needle teeth? This cat would be smoke-grey with sinews of toughest leather under the distasteful velvet depths of the fur; and its eyes would be wolfish topazes or burnt sugar. It would be stretching and plucking and striking, calling up some spirit that had never been wakened before." -Oct. 26, 1946
