About Concert Royal - flute, cello and harpsichord

Concert Royal, one of Britain’s first “authentic instrument” ensembles, has, remarkably, retained the same personnel for fifty years: Peter Harrison (baroque flutes), Rachel Gray (cello and viola da gamba), and John Treherne (harpsichord). Now on their farewell tour, this is absolutely your last chance to hear them recreate the sophisticated charm of a C18th musical entertainment, in which German baroque sonatas and fantasies are played alongside British folk-song arrangements, dances and character pieces.
