Sunday 21st September, 7.00pm-8.45pm
If music be the food of love, play on!
Join Penistone Folk Ensemble as they return for an entertaining evening of 17th Century music. From Playford to Susato, this fundraising event will explore music from a variety of composers from as far back as 1550, and earlier. Played on fiddles, mandolins, violas, concertina, and a whole host of other instruments, this event is sure to be a musical feast for all.
The first half of the concert will feature the music of Irish bard and harper, Turlough O'Carolan, with narration on his life by David Alton, and music by our special guest harpist, Alejandro Barnett. The second half will explore more music from the period, particularly the Playford collection, and will feature display dancers. The band and dancers will be in 17th Century costume, and will be playing the usual array of instruments to delight your ears.
Price: £15.00
