Biography
Instruments of Time and Truth, described on BBC Record Review as 'an absolutely superb band of instrumental soloists', was founded in 2014 by musicians Gabriel Amherst and Judith Evans to provide a platform for international period instrument performers resident in and around Oxford to present world-class performances of baroque and classical music in the city and the surrounding region.
