The title of the concert comes from an old volume of a sample-book of state poems and love-songs showing the affinities between Scotland, England and France in the 16th and 17th centuries
We perform with around a dozen members playing every kind of period instrument – cornetts, sackbuts, serpent, natural trumpets, oxhorn, viols, violins, rebecs, harps, citole, shawms, curtals, cornemuse, crumhorns, recorders, portative organ gemshorns and more, with varied percussion, joined by voices. The programme is presented in a friendly way, and it is suitable for all ages. Children are especially welcome.
