IBO FRIENDS & PATRONS

"I have long held the view that the audience is of central importance to music-making. We may not be as well-informed or as talented as the performers but, thanks to Covid, nobody has to imagine what the music world would be like without us! The IBO takes us all into the chemistry of the music, probably making it the nearest thing to unalienated creativity that I’ve ever experienced"

"In recent years we’ve been so fortunate to have a group of the calibre of the Irish Baroque Orchestra on our doorstep. Apart from their superb musicianship and interesting programmes, their rapport and joie de vivre are infectious – and that’s the only kind of infection we need right now!

I’ve always believed that if we want this brilliant group to continue to delight us, it’s important to show appreciation in a meaningful way. That’s why my husband and I have been friends of the IBO for many years."
