Baroque Orchestra of Maine, also known as BOOM, was founded in 2010 with the mission to engage and educate a wide audience in rural Downeast Maine about baroque period instrument performance by presenting concerts in accessible, eclectic, non-traditional concert venues. This non profit ensemble has been bringing joy and education to the area ever since with their dynamic and engaging concerts.
