Sarah Bleile Douglass is a versatile baroque violinist who has charmed audiences in North America and Europe in both her fields of baroque music and traditional fiddling.

In 2021, Sarah and her duo partner Shelby Yamin released an album of previously unrecorded violin duets by Maddalena Sirmen Lombardini. Sarah’s playing can also be heard on the Juno award-winning album “Early Italian Cello Concertos” with Elinor Frey and Rosa Barocca, and on R&B artist Sophie Coran’s album “S P A C E.”
