Brook Street Band

Playing the Picture

Playing the Picture
Blending art and music, The Brook Street Band brings to life the music and musicians depicted in 18th century paintings by Hogarth and Gainsborough. Each picture offers a mystery to solve: what is the manuscript lying on the table, or artfully placed on the shelf, and why is it there? Music by Handel and his contemporaries brings to life these artworks, as Brook Street Band unravels the stories behind the paintings, players and music.

Instrumentation: Violin, Cello, Harpsichord
Extras: refreshments included as well as a chance to meet with the artist
