Cupid's Ground Bass

Join the Bellot Ensemble for a thrilling evening of 17th-century Italian music, as they bring their acclaimed Cupid’s Ground Bass programme to the HHH Concerts series. Known for their vibrant and expressive performances, the ensemble delves into the emotional depths of love—its ecstasy, torment, and everything in between—through the bold and inventive sound world of early Baroque Italy.

This programme showcases not only the richly expressive vocal writing of the period, with stunning performances by soprano Lucine Musaelian and tenor Kieran White, but also the ensemble’s signature instrumental flair. Expect virtuosic diminutions, imaginative reworkings, and a celebration of the hypnotic ground bass patterns that underpin some of the era’s most moving and dramatic music.
