Palisander

Cries of London

Cries of London
Palisander performs a signature blend of music and words in tribute to London, featuring repertoire spanning 800 years.

'Cries of London' follows the voices of Londoners throughout history - those who reserved the city's sounds, notating its church bells, market cries, songs and Frost Fairs on the frozen Thames. Handel, Purcell and Holst feature (all once London residents), alongside the more mysterious 'Mrs Philharmonica' (whose identity is still unknown) and there is even an offering from an English Queen!
