*CANCELLED* The Twelve Days of Lute-song

*CANCELLED* The Twelve Days of Lute-song

Ticket holders will be refunded.

Ease into the Christmas spirit with Musicke in the Ayre’s sideways look at the lute song repertory. Jane Hunt and Din Ghani have used the themes from “The 12 days of Christmas” to curate a programme of songs to the lute (and baroque guitar). Ayres by the great lute-song composers John Dowland and Thomas Campion are mingled with more unusual pieces by Ravenscroft, Morley, Bannister and Gibbons, with added continental spice from France, Italy and Spain.
