The ensemble will present a program inspired by the myth of Arion - saved from drowning by a dolphin drawn to his song.

The evening features works by masters such as Dufay, Cipriano de Rore, Lassus, and Marenzio, performed on authentic replicas of early viols and recorders - an opportunity to hear music sung in the manner of and played on the instruments it was written for.

Tickets, including a drink, are £22 and just £2 for under-18s.
