Arpeggione performs Classical and Romantic chamber music in historic homes and landscapes of the North Shore, and wherever the power of music is most needed. Arpeggione pairs familiar works with lesser known masterpieces, performed in chamber arrangements for winds and strings. As the North Shore’s only resident period-instrument ensemble, Arpeggione revitalizes once overlooked repertoire to create a newly expanded, re-examined, and inclusive musical canon. Arpeggione is a BIPOC- and woman-led organization at the vanguard of historically-informed chamber music. We draw inspiration from women-led salons of the past to expand our musical horizons and strengthen community.

Arpeggione performs free community concerts throughout the year. The ensemble has performed at Harborlight House, a low-income assisted living facility in Beverly as well as the Beverly Senior Center. Arpeggione is proud to partner with organizations such as The Trustees- Long Hill, Manship Artists Residency, Historic Beverly, and Gloucester 400 to bring world-class historically informed performances to the the North Shore.
