’Tis Nature’s Voice: solo song in seventeenth century England

7.30pm
Tickets £15 / Students & U18s £5

Robin Blaze and Elizabeth Kenny

The inspiration of singing in seventeenth century England, Dowland's First Book of Ayres in 1597 marked the arrival in print of a new performance ideal: a solo voice and one instrument, as the compelling way to move the heart and soul in everything from love lyrics to deepest darkness and theatre-inspired virtuosity. Internationally recognised counter tenor Robin Blaze takes on the lute song repertory from Dowland through to the glories of Henry Purcell, accompanied by Elizabeth Kenny on lute and theorbo. We are hugely grateful to a TEMS member for making this concert possible.
