Outreach; June 2018
Our outreach programme enables us to broaden our audience base by offering opportunities to hear early music throughout the year in different settings. On Thursday June 21st, Make Music Day, we invited Ruth Hopkins and Sam Brown to the Commandery Museum where they played Elizabethan Lute songs to captivated audiences, young and not so young! 
Birmingham Conservatoire Students
On the morning of Friday 22nd June students from Birmingham Conservatoire gave a splendid concert, including works by Monteverdi, Couperin, Telemann, and Boismortier on various instruments including recorders, flute, Baroque cello, and harpsichord. We extend our thanks to Martin Perkins, and Elizabeth Pallett, tutors at the Conservatoire, who gave their time to support the event. The concert drew a good sized audience, and looks set to be a permanent fixture in the Worcestershire Early Music summer season of events.
