“Music from the Mediaeval to the late Renaissance”

Janet Oates – voice, recorder, percussion   Lucy Green – voice, hurdy gurdy

Emily Baines – woodwinds   Arngeir Hauksson – lutes, percussion

Duo Maddalena and The Amyas Ensemble perform a feast of early music from the Mediaeval to the late Renaissance, including pieces for lute, woodwinds, vielle-á-roue (hurdy-gurdy) and voices. Their performance showcases works by Landini, Ciconia, Dowland, and Strozzi, as well as songs from the Cantigas de Santa Maria collection.

And if this exhilarating programme is not motivation enough to come and join us, the evening offers the audience a special opportunity try out a few of these early instruments for themselves during the interval.
