Melos Period Instruments is a group of dedicated, professional musicians, who have undertaken study of historically informed playing of replica instruments from the 12th-18th centuries. The group has a core of 10 regular players, as well additional members who join us for expanded programs, like antiphonal settings that require double continuo groups or extra viols for viol ensemble or when we need extra woodwinds like flute
