    EMS "York Early Music Festival - Cubaroque" 22/9/2024

    An unusual mix for this Cubaroque Early Music Show, 22/9/2024

    York Early Music Festival - Cubaroque
    The Early Music Show

    An unusual, possibly unique, pairing of two glorious songwriting traditions, bringing together perennial favourites Purcell and Monteverdi with more modern songs from across South America. Though separated by time and distance, they have in common a concern with love, loss, longing and the eternal elements of what it is to be alive, proving that what unites is more interesting than that which divides.

    Tenor Nicholas Mulroy sings these songs at the York International Early Music Festival, alongside lutenist Elizabeth Kenny and guitarist Toby Carr.

    Presented by Hannah French

    It looks to be from this 7th July Concert - possibly the remaining parts of this live Early Music Show.

    “the sheer expressivity of (Mulroy’s)singing was a thing of wonder here. Every phrase, every word was turned over carefully so as to heighten the storytelling.” The Times

    Catching up on this excellent EMS.
    Really enjoyed the Monteverdi. Purcell is now In the Black Dismal Dungeon - beautifully sung & played.
