Collegium Musicum Den Haag, a young Baroque orchestra from The Hague, played a concert on Wednesday 2 September 2015 in the Utrechtse Geertekerk as part of the Festival of Early Music.

The orchestra, led by the harpsichordist Claudio Ribeiro, played a programme with music by the Dutch composers  Willem de Fesch and Pieter Hellendaal, who both went to London to seek their fortunes. There they both has success with music in an Italian style.

Collegium Musicum Den Haag complements the music by De Fesch and Hellendaal with works by G.F. Händel.
