    Overview

    Consort music flourished in England in Tudor timesand well into the seventeenth century, creating a richlegacy of domestic compositions and presenting youngHenry Purcell with inspiration for his own early works.

    Phantasm joins forces with close colleagues JonathanRees and Liam Byrne to explore fabulous fantasiasand In Nomines, genres that originated in themid-1500s, flourished during the Civil War periodand were still being composed after the Restoration.

    Henry Purcell: A Retrospective is made possible thanks to all our contributors to the Wigmore Hall Endowment Fund, whose purpose is to help fund important artistic projects.
