Hay Music Baroque Alchemy
Saturday, 26 April at 7.30pm (doors open 7.00pm). The Castle, Hay-on-Wye.
Baroque Alchemy
International recorder player and Red Priest frontman Piers Adams - described in the Washington Post as “the leading recorder virtuoso in the world today” - joins forces with multi-talented keyboardist Lyndy Mayle in an extraordinary ‘electro-baroque fusion’. By replacing the familiar sound of the harpsichord with the universe of possibilities offered by the modern-day keyboard, Piers and Lyndy expand upon the dreams of composers of the past, re-imagining music from mediaeval and baroque masters to modern day tango and jazz. The wizardry of the keyboard - a plethora of instruments in one - is balanced by the natural expressive power of Piers’ recorders, creating a perfect blend of ancient and modern in a dazzling and moving performance.
