Baroque Music performed by the La Réveuse Ensemble

Allée des Acacias

London in the 17th and 18th centuries stands at the cutting edge of musical innovation. The English composer John Playford in the 17th century and the Scottish James Oswald in the 18th century immediately strike the right balance between traditional and learned music, and introduce the English to the beauties of Celtic music, from ballrooms to drawing rooms. Here is a joyful program to discover the history of Celtic music in a different light. By Florence Bolton, pardessus de viole, and Benjamin Perrot, theorbo and English guitar.
