Sarah Stone

Cello and Viola da Gamba

A curiosity in the cultural background behind the music she plays led Sarah Stone to baroque cello and viola da gamba. "The show is not over... Questlove keeps spinning into the early morning. Sir Patrick Stewart has been reading a Shakespeare sonnet everyday. Sarah Stone, who plays cello and viola da gamba, has stuck to her “Bach Everyday” performances...Since March 19, she’s done a Bach Chorale each day.” (Geoff Edgers, The Washington Post, 2020). At the start of the pandemic Sarah created Everyday Bach, recording multi-instrumental Bach everyday for a year, featured in the Washington Post, The Greene Space (WNYC), and Early Music America. Sarah is Associate Artistic Director of New York Baroque Incorporated and a core member of Repast Baroque. She performs with The Sebastians, Trinity Baroque Orchestra, Seraphic Fire, Washington National Cathedral, Apollo’s Fire, The Thirteen, and Baroque Music Montana. Sarah holds degrees from The Juilliard School, San Francisco Conservatory of Music, and Rice University. www.sarahabigaelstone.com
