Mike Shand plays baroque flute. Mike has studied traverso with Linda Marianiello, Anne Briggs, Sandy Miller, and Wendy Rolfe. He has performed solo and in ensembles in northern New Jersey, Newport, Tiverton, New Bedford and Boston. Mike founded the Treaty Rock Consort, and has performed at the Loring-Greenough House concert series in Boston with Judith Conrad and at Buzzards Bay with the Delight Consort.

Will Ayton plays viola de gamba. Will, the son of missionary parents, was born in Kansu in China and was educated there, in Taiwan, and in the United States. He is a professor at Roger Williams University in Bristol, where he teaches music and culture. His compositions have been recorded by Parthenia, the first rate consort of viols. The group's CD of Will's music is entitled "Parthenia: A Reliquary for William Blake." Will's early music passions have led to viola de gamba performances with numerous groups.

Glenn Giuttari plays harpsichord. Glenn lives in Rehoboth, MA and is the founder of Harpsichord Clearing House. He did undergraduate and graduate work in musicology at Brown University and studied the harpsichord with John Gibbons in Boston. Over the course of a 40-year career, Glenn has become well known in the early music field as a harpsichord builder and technician, with sporadic skirmishes into the performance world.
