In the early 1700s, London was quickly becoming the musical hub of Europe, and its epicentre was the area around the Strand, home to famous music shops and print-houses. Ensemble Hesperi – renowned for their dynamic and innovative programmes – present lively and enticing music from theatres and taverns, churches and private homes, and reflect on the craze for Scottish music that was sweeping the English capital!
