'Fragrant Flora! Haste, Appear!'

Linnet Baroque returns to St Mary's, Twickenham, TW1 3NJ with a programme of music to welcome in the Spring, following their well-received 'Pope's Messiah' last November.

 Featuring music by Pepusch, Hasse, Linley, Abel, Scarlatti and others, Linnet Baroque presents informative and carefully researched programmes, with a focus on English baroque & early classical repertoire.

The pool of talented and experienced musicians, led by Elin Harries add interesting and light-hearted anecdotes to their performances. They specialise in the virtuosic 'bird song' genre, so popular in the works of Handel and his peers, as well as music written for domestic entertainment, much of it now languishing in obscurity.
