Academy Of Ancient Music
The Academy of Ancient Music is a British period-instrument orchestra based in Cambridge, England. Founded by harpsichordist Christopher Hogwood in 1973, it was named after an 18th-century organisation of the same name. The musicians play on either original instruments from the period when the music was composed or modern copies of such instruments. They generally play Baroque, Classical, and sometimes Romantic music, although they have also played some new compositions for baroque orchestra in recent years. Richard Egarr was music director between 2006 and 2021, since when the post has been filled by Laurence Cummings.
