About the Event
The Corporation of Musick is a cornett and sackbut ensemble dedicated to recreating the sounds and styles once heard in the royal courts, churches and streets of Renaissance and Baroque Europe.
Following their previous attendance in 2019, we look forward to another fascinating insight into historical music making and instruments from the group.This concert will demonstrate the three distinct types, and all the different sizes, of oboe being used in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. And the programme will contain music from the court of Louis XIII, and the English theatres - James Paisible and Henry Purcell, finishing with a ’tavern’ set of the popular music.
