Music From Thomas Morley's First Booke of Consort Lessons, 1599

The first three instruments feature prominently, in particular the lute, which plays many rapid divisions, while the bass viol, bandora, and cittern form a kind of proto-continuo section.

The concert will feature music for the full consort, as well as solos, duets and lute songs, by John Dowland, Peter Phillips, Richard Allison and Thomas Morley.
