Biography
Ars Lyrica Houston
Ars Lyrica Houston specializes in music from the Baroque era, the “golden age” of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, as performed on period instruments with careful attention to historical style and context. Founded in Houston in 1998 by harpsichordist and conductor Matthew Dirst, this Grammy-nominated ensemble provides audiences with world-class performances of a wide range of dramatic, sacred, and chamber works.
Ars Lyrica’s 21/22 Turning Points season highlights crucial moments in the lives of individuals and cultures, fictional and real. Highlights include two new operatic productions, major works by Bach and Handel, a musical soirée in Paris, and a tuneful trip across our southern border. With in-person and digital options for subscriptions and single tickets, Ars Lyrica patrons can enjoy concerts, special events, and behind-the-scenes looks from anywhere in the world.
