About the event

Event 4/6 of the Festival of the Sun king: Music for the Sun King's Sleep Concert

Hex was formed in 2022 and had its inaugural performance at Brixworth Music Festival. The group was set up to explore the otherworldly sounds of violas da gamba with continuo. Inspired by the associations between the viola da gamba and voice the group works on the historical practice of vocal transcriptions to bring in lesser performed composers into their concerts. Naturally at home in the French baroque, the group aims to win this rarely performed music new fans with programmes that showcase the beauty and expressivity of this repertoire.

Escape teh cares and stress of running the country with an intimate cocnert inspired by the musicians of the king's private chamber. In an age where only the aristocracy could afford to choose the music they listened to, we explore the private side to this…
