Description

This remarkable recorder ensemble features four of the UK's leading players Rebecca Austen-Brown, Louise Bradbury, Sarah Humphrys and Annabel Knight.  Fontanella entertains audiences of all ages in programmes designed to bring the history of the recorder to life. 

'The Delightful Companion', a recorder music book, was aptly named by Robert Carr in 1670. From a virtuosic concerto by John Baston to divisions on the famous Greensleeves, Henry Purcell?s 3 Parts Upon a Ground and hits from The Catch Club, this concert promises to paint a colourful musical landscape with additional repertoire by Matthew Locke, Campion, Banister, tunes from the Division Flute and Playford?s Dancing Master. It is performed on an array of instruments from the tiny garklein to the great sub-contra bass. The concert is part of a tour of the UK Supported by a grant from the Continuo Foundation.

The 1 hour performance (repeated at 7.00pm) follows recent Government guidelines. Audiences will be limited to 45 places per performance and we recommend the use of face masks unless exempt. Please book in advance by 16th September. No tickets on sale at the door.
