Sridhar Bhagavathula

About

I am a traverso player interested mainly in the music of Johann Sebastian Bach and his contemporaries. I perform as Musica Orphei with harpsichordist Heejin Kim. Since 2024, we have been recording Bach’s chamber works, including those not originally written for the flute. Recent highlights include releasing the EP Bells of Morn, printing CDs of our debut album Through a Glass Darkly (long live physical media!), and playing a Bach Day concert at Indiana University’s Beck Chapel. I have also performed with ensembles such as The Thirteen and Apollo’s Fire, and at the Amherst Early Music Festival.
