Artworks Concert 2008 - The Delightful Companions

Presenting another concert of music from the age of Baroque, this year Artworks welcomes The Delightful Companions, a diverse and experienced Baroque ensemble playing instruments of the period. The programme will explore the culture, the performing conditions, and the music of a particular time and place and will include work by Handel, Telemann, Corelli, Loeillet, Purcell and Bach. The Delightful Companions aim to put proven masterpieces in context with delightful lesser known works.
