Our lively concert programs span six hundred years of music, celebrating the long history of the recorder
from the medieval period right up to the present day. We perform on a specialist array of instruments
of every shape and size, from our beautiful 15-piece renaissance consort to our fascinating set of
contemporary Paetzold ‘square’ basses; our aim is to combine an awareness of the most recent scholarship
in renaissance and early repertoire with performances of more contemporary works, as well as including
our own unique arrangements of music from other genres. Programs often include all of these elements,
usually woven together creatively by a historical or festival theme.
