Join us in celebrating the beauty of the historical trombone with repertoire to include early Baroque favourites with soprano, Mariana Rodrigues, music from bronze age, and double fugue by Marc’Antonio Ingegneri, recently discovered by Gareth Wilson.
A magical evening presenting the content of The Royal Sackbut Collective's debut album, featuring a great variety of music from all ages!
Earlier this year, The Royal Sackbut Collective embarked on their most ambitious project so far: the recording and release of their first album. Three intense days at Christ's Church, Chelsea, brought together a varied collection of pieces that, as a whole, aim to showcase everything that the sackbut can do as an instrument.
A few months later, and as proud recipients of a grant by the Continuo Foundation, the group is ready to introduce their work to a live audience. It promises to be a unique concert, including music from many different centuries and cultures and exploring the artistic limits of the sackbut ensemble.
The programme will include collaborations with soprano Mariana Rodrigues, innovative performances by standards of the early Baroque repertoire, a piece that dates back to the bronze age and a never-before performed or recorded work by Marc' Antonio Ingegneri, Monteverdi's teacher.
The Royal Sackbut Collective is extremely excited to welcome you to this concert and hopes that you can join us in a very special evening!
