Continuo Connect — Concert // Instruments of Time and Truth: Choice Cantatas, Songs, and Sonatas

Whilst Archangelo Corelli was basking in his reputation in Rome, and Michel-Richard Delalande soaking up the flattering attentions of the Parisian public, some notable musicians were making waves in London. They are not so well-known, but they deserve to be. It’s a cosmopolitan crowd. Alongside the Englishmen ­– John Weldon, Daniel Purcell and William Croft – we can count Gottfried Finger, Francesco Geminiani and Johann Cristoph Pepusch. All of them were soon to be eclipsed by Georg Frederic Handel, for sure, but none deserves oblivion. This concert will ensure that doesn’t happen.

This concert is part of the Instruments of Time and Truth Summer Concert Series 2023, and is generously supported by John Osborn.

Instruments of Time and Truth are Oxford’s own period instrument orchestra, presenting world-class performances of Baroque and Classical music in Oxford and around the UK.
