Early Music Missouri

Early Music Missouri is dedicated to the promotion of Early Music through performance, education and research. Begun as informal concerts in 2018, EMMo presents concerts, workshops, master classes and presentations on Early Music performance across the region. EMMo concerts feature Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque and early Classical repertoire played on instruments (originals and reproductions) from these eras. Informed by historical documents and original musical scores and guided by modern research, EMMo offers performances that reflect an Historically Informed Approach to technique, interpretation, and performance, presenting expert performers and performer/scholars who are some of the finest musicians of our region as well as out-of-town guest artists. Our EMMo Mainstage series offers six concerts each year at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Ladue, and our EMMo@MOCRA series presents two intimate chamber concerts at Saint Louis University’s Museum of Contemporary Religious Art (an acoustically gorgeous space, especially for plucked string instruments).

THANK YOU for your continued support of EMMo and our mission of bringing the finest local and regional Early Music performers to the stage. Your support, in whatever form it has taken, has helped EMMo take root and grow in our city and region. As we look ahead to our exciting and ambitious fifth season (culminating in Vivaldi’s spectacular Four Seasons next April!) we want to thank each and every one of our audience members for your support—by showing up for concerts and offering your financial backing—that allows us to bring you expert performers to share with you their talent and artistry.

For this year’s Give STL Day, an anonymous donor has offered a $500 match, effectively doubling your donation and its impact. Please help us reach our Give STL Day goal of raising $750 to support next season’s concerts and our EMMo artists!
