Co-founders of the Seattle Baroque Orchestra and the award-winning chamber ensemble La Luna, Ingrid Matthews (Bodky Laureate 1989) and Byron Schenkman (Bodky Laureate 1999) have performed all over the world and on numerous highly-acclaimed recordings of 17th and 18th century music. Their playing, both separately and together, has been lauded as “exuberant,” “phenomenal,” and “astonishing.”
