This intimate, candlelit concert explores the rich repertoire of lute song in England and France at the turn of the seventeenth century. Soprano Charlotte La Thrope and tenor Hugo Hymas, with lutenist Sergio Bucheli, present music of love and longing by Dowland, Campion and Purcell, alongside rarely heard Airs de Cour by composers such as Ambruys and Lambert. This programme will trace the expressive range of early song from private melancholy to courtly elegance, performed here in historically informed style and atmospheric surroundings.
Charlotte La Thrope (soprano), Hugo Hymas (tenor) and Sergio Bucheli (lute)
