«Beatles Go Baroque» is the album by Peter Breiner and his chamber orchestra, released in 2001 by Naxos on CD.
The album presents instrumental arrangements of Lennon and McCartney songs filtered through Baroque music. The Beatles' melodies are gathered in four concerti grossi evoking the styles of Handel, Vivaldi and Bach; among the recognizable tunes appear «Help», «Michelle» and «Yellow Submarine».
Recorded in the Moyzes Hall of the Slovak Philharmonic in Bratislava in 1992; the CD has a total duration of 56:41 and catalogue number 8.555010.
The crossover between The Beatles' pop and the Baroque idiom makes it appealing to classical music fans and to followers of the band.
