A baroque concert in which soprano Ruby Hughes is joined by lutenist Jonas Nordberg and baroque cellist Mime Yamahiro-Brinkmann. The evening moves between song and instrumental music, with works by Kapsberger, Purcell, Vivaldi and Barbara Strozzi, among others.
The programme ranges from Purcell's Dido's Lament and Lead me to some peaceful gloom to Vivaldi's Cello Sonata in G minor, and includes pieces from the 1600s such as The Willow Song and Anne Boleyn's O death rock me asleep. It is a chance to hear some of the period's most affecting music performed in an intimate church setting.
