An Evening of 17th Century Music
Join Penistone Folk Ensemble as they return for another entertaining evening of Playford music from 1651, as well as other early composers including Susato, for our next fundraising event. The music will be performed on fiddles, mandolins, viola, concertina, guitars bass, bassoon, recorders and Flemish bagpipes – sure to be a musical feast for all!
The first half of the concert will feature the music of Irish bard and harpist, Turlough O'Carolan, with narration provided by David Alton on his life and music with special guest, Alejandro Barnett, playing the harp. The second half will feature music from the 17th century as well as a performance by the group's display dancers. The band and dancers will be dressed in 17th century costume and will be playing an exciting array of instruments to delight your ears.
