Baroque Arts Project

Since 1999, Baroque Arts Project has enchanted audiences with innovative programs of music of the 17th & 18th centuries. Based in historic New Bern, NC, the group was founded by Baroque dancer Paige Whitley-Bauguess and Baroque trumpeter Barry Bauguess to bring the rich musical arts of the Baroque period to life. Through reconstruction of historical performance practices, Baroque Arts Project artists create fresh and enlightening performances that delight young and old, enrich the arts landscape in communities, broaden the understanding of our heritage, and spark curiosity.
