Passamezzo will record an album of British music, words and song from the Restoration era based on a programme we developed and toured last year with the support of Continuo Foundation. The programme consists of ballads about the Plague, the Great Fire, the Frost Fair, horseracing, chocolate and coffee; loyal songs and theatre songs; tavern rounds, dance music, and divisions and solos for the violin, viol and cittern. It is an innovative programme, and contains several pieces that are manuscript transcriptions, and have not been recorded elsewhere. The CD will be recorded with Resonus Classics.
