Purcell and a Pint

Purcell and a Pint is back in Cambridge with a new programme! Join Eboracum for an evening of rowdy drinking songs, popular folk tunes and more!

Purcell and a pint will transport you back to the alehouses of 17th-century England. Taverns were raucous surroundings and overflowed with music, alcohol, sex, gossip, fights, fumes, shouting, singing, laughing, and dancing…. Our performance won’t have all of those!

We’ll be performing a mixture of instrumental tunes and songs by Purcell and lots of his contemporaries to create our own 17th-century pub gig. Audience participation is a must! This is a new programme, so if you’ve been before, there will be lots of new tunes but some of our old favourites will remain.

Beer collaboration to be announced. Non-alcoholic refreshments are also available.

Featuring:

John Holland Avery – Baritone

Miriam Monaghan – Recorders

Miri Nohl – Cello/Viol

Laurence Lyndon Jones – Harpsichord

Chris Parsons – Trumpet and Cajon
