The Catacoustic Consort presents a variety of vocal and instrumental music from Renaissance chamber music to Baroque opera, with the intent of recreating the sound of the music when it was originally performed. Music is performed on period instruments, such as the viola da gamba, theorbo, harpsichord, and lute. Catacoustic presents a series of concerts in Cincinnati, in addition to concert tours, CD recordings, lectures, early music instrument rentals, workshops for people in the community to learn to play Renaissance & Baroque era instruments, and a new outreach initiative for children and the elderly.
