The English Concert in America
About Us
TECA
The English Concert in America, a nonprofit organization established in 2009, promotes the performance and appreciation of baroque and classical music in the United States through its association with The English Concert, one of the finest chamber orchestras in the world, currently under the direction of Harry Bicket OBE, internationally renowned opera and concert conductor.
Baroque at its Best
In conjunction with The English Concert’s annual U.S. tours, TECA organizes additional concerts with Maestro Bicket, The English Concert players, and The English Concert in America Fellows to share with audiences inspiring performances of early music. Past events have included concerts at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New-York Historical Society, Carnegie Hall and Neue Galerie New York.
