'Something Old, New, Borrowed, Blue'

Baroque music is certainly old, but there’s something to this quaint saying that will delight and open your ears to new composers, borrowed melodies and even something blue.

Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue: this old English rhyme connotes the breadth of our ancestors, an optimism for what’s to come, delight in sharing with others, and love for our ability to be involved with what we enjoy most. Join Parish House Baroque as we discover musical gems that fit into each of these four categories. And you won’t have to put a sixpence in your shoe!
