When William Lawes was killed during the English Civil War aged just 43, Charles I lost a loyal servant and England its most adventurous composer. As we welcome the acclaimed French ensemble Près de votre Oreille to Beverley with their exquisite Lawes programme, John Bryan, Emeritus Professor of the University of Huddersfield, will place Lawes’ intriguing musical output in the context of the extravagant musical life of the Stuart court and the evolution of innovative styles that led to the later achievements of Henry Purcell and his contemporaries.
