This programme of music played on original viols, is inspired by William Young who worked at the court of Ferdinand Charles, Archduke of Austria, in Innsbruck. Peter and Jacqui will play some Suites they have compiled of Young’s pieces, combining them with duets by Matthew Locke. At the end, there will be a mystery composer!
In the last year Peter and Jacqui have both acquired original seven-string bass viols. Peter has an original Tielke c1700 and Jacqui’s viol is by Georg Seelos, c1680 from Innsbruck and it is for this reason they are playing William Young.
Entry to all workshops, talks and masterclasses is free with either an Exhibition Day ticket or a Festival Pass.
