An Afternoon with Wade Davis, Baroque Cellist

An Afternoon with Wade Davis, Baroque Cellist

On January the 11th, at 3:00 PM, Mr. Wade Davis will present a performance of Baroque cello music. This music of the 17th and 18th centuries would the music heard throughout Europe during the time of the Salzburger’s Exile and the time of this congregation’s formation at Ebenezer. What a wonderful chance to bring time period music to life with the wonderful acoustics in this historic church.

A native of South Carolina, Wade Davis holds a master’s degree in cello performance from the Peabody Conservatory and has become one of the leading interpreters of Baroque cello in the United States. Based in Baltimore, he performs regularly with the prestigious Smithsonian Chamber Music Society and appears with early-music ensembles and festival orchestras nationwide. Known for his rich tone, stylistic authenticity, and engaging stage presence, Wade brings the music of the 17th and 18th centuries to life with exceptional artistry.

This inaugural concert invites listeners to experience Baroque music as it was meant to be heard—in a resonant, historic space, performed by an artist dedicated to the craft of period performance. Whether you are an early-music enthusiast or simply seeking a beautiful and uplifting afternoon, this event promises a memorable musical journey.

Come hear the beautiful sounds of the past come to life in the present.

A reception will follow with an opportunity to meet Mr. Davis.
