Wild Men of the Baroque

Join Piers Adams (recorders) and David Wright (keyboard) for an afternoon of virtuosic Baroque music.

Virtuoso musicians Piers Adams and David Wright – who together make up half of the legendary Red Priest quartet – take us on a journey through the wild side of the Baroque era with some extraordinary music by little-known 17th-century composers in the 'Phantasticus' style, alongside an array of high-Baroque masterworks.

The programme will include music by Corelli, Handel, Telemann, Castello, Bull, Uccellini, Marini, Van Eyck, Pandolfi, Royer and Biber.

'Superhuman virtuosity, a laughing recklessness and style you can't buy…' – Gramophone

There will also be a recorder masterclass before the concert from 12-1pm.
