Event Information
Piers Adams – recorders
Lyndy Mayle – keyboards
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 this extraordinary 'electro-baroque fusion' duo. By replacing the familiar sound of the harpsichord with the universe of possibilities offered by modern-day keyboard technology 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.
