The English Concert in America

adriane post, violin

Selected as an English Concert American Fellow in 2014

Adriane Post’s baroque violin playing has been described as “exquisite” by The New York Times. Sought after as leader, collaborator and soloist in ensembles across the U.S., she is a founding member of ACRONYM Ensemble and Diderot String Quartet, concertmaster of the Washington National Cathedral Orchestra, associate principal of Apollo's Fire, soloist and collaborator with Four Nations Ensemble, and guest concertmaster with groups such as Seraphic Fire and New York Baroque Incorporated.

A tenured member of the Handel and Haydn Society, Post also performs regularly with Trinity Wall Street Baroque Orchestra and has appeared recently as guest with groups such as Les Delices, Chatham Baroque, and Tenet. Recent and upcoming festival and tour appearances include Carnegie Hall, Caramoor, Tanglewood, Ravinia, and Carmel Bach Festival. Invested particularly in 17th Century and Classical through Early Romantic performance practice, she received her Bachelor of Music from Oberlin Conservatory, where she first fell in love with the baroque violin, and her Master of Music from the Juilliard School’s Historical Performance program.  Post, born and raised in Vermont, is based in New York and Chicago.
