Friday Lunchtime Concert: Bellot Ensemble I

Dynamic period instrument group, Bellot Ensemble, presents a programme of music from 17th-century England.This programme – Whose Wills were Laws – begins with works by Nicholas Lanier, the first Master of the King’s Musick, and traces a path through his Caroline contemporaries to the expressive world of Purcell and Banister in the Restoration.

Bellot Ensemble are known for their energetic performances and style-specific improvisation. Specialising in 17th-century repertoire, the ensemble combines rigorous historical research with spontaneous creativity, sharing the joy of this glorious repertoire with their audiences.
