The International Baroque Players present outstanding period instrument performance by talented young musicians from all over the world. The Pleasure Gardens of the Eighteenth Century provided Londoners from all walks of life with evenings of multi-sensory entertainment. Food, wine, music and visual spectacle provided respite from the crowded city. In this programme, IBP will perform an eclectic programme of eighteenth century popular hits by Handel and Arne, alongside beautiful and rare repertoire by Avison and Boyce. On this occasion the ensemble will be directed by up-and-coming harpsichordist Christopher Bucknall who recently toured as a concerto soloist with Rachel Podger and works extensively in baroque opera and chamber music. For these concerts the IBP also welcome talented soprano Mary Bevan (“when she opened up her high register…the effect was ravishing” The Independent).
