Much sought-after for performances in Europe and with a far-reaching discography, Mields is pleased to be returning to the west coast to feature in Pacific Baroque Festival 2025 and perform once again with Festival Artistic Director Marc Destrubé. The two together have curated three intriguing programs inspired by Johannes Voorhout’s painting “Allegory of Friendship” which portrays the musical bonds of the Hamburg composers Dietrich Buxtehude, Johann Thiele, and Johann Reinken.

Soprano Dorothee Mields is an artist of the absolutely highest caliber and one who has an innate understanding of the music of the North-German Baroque.
