Nassau, Bahamas - The Nassau Chamber Ensemble is pleased to present its third concert, an afternoon of delightful Baroque, Classical and Romantic Chamber Music to be held at the Bahamas Historical Society on Sunday, 10th June 2012 at 3pm. It is hoped that everyone interested would be able to attend this delightful event. Refreshments will be served.
The Nassau Chamber Ensemble is a 12-member string ensemble comprised of 6 violins, 2 violas, 2 cellos, 1 double bass and a harpsichord. The ensemble was co-founded by Noël Thompson and Hélène Péloquin in September 2010. Their objective was to bring together a group of like-minded musicians interested in performing beautiful instrumental chamber works. Having had two successful concerts under their belts, the ensemble is pleased to present its third concert.

This performance would also feature Vivaldi’s Double Cello Concerto for Strings & Continuo in G minor RV 531 featuring Nassau Chamber Ensemble cellists as soloists.
