Continuo Connect — Concert // Barokksolistene: Purcell's Playground

Robert writes: “A thrilling double bill from one of the world’s hottest early music groups - and one of our most in-demand sopranos. It’s hard to put into words this magical hour (which I saw last year): Purcell, as if you catch him at the moment of composition, musing, playing in his mind. Watching a possessed Mary Bevan in one of the madsongs with instruments playing by heart and somehow attached to her every phrase is something I’ll hold onto for the rest of my life. Book early.”
