1670 - A Meeting of Friends

Sunday 6 June, 1.00pm - c. 2.00pm/3.30pm - c. 4.30pm

Inspired by the 350th anniversary of the Grade 1 listed Friends’ Meeting House in Hertford, this programme is centred around the year 1670.

Drawing on their vast collection recorders, all manner of shapes and sizes from the tiny garklein to the great sub-contra bass, Fontanella will bring to life this Delightful Companion, aptly named by Robert Carr in the seventeenth century.

From a virtuosic concerto by John Baston to divisions on the famous Greensleeves, Henry Purcell’s Three Parts upon a Ground and hits from The Catch Club, this concert promises to paint a colourful musical landscape!

All Saints’ Church, Queens Road, Hertford SG13 8AY

Tickets: £21.50

Price includes booking fees
