Les Musiciens de Saint-Julien, guided by François Lazarevitch's virtuoso flute, have already led us along the roads of Ireland and Scotland, notably the High Road to Kilkenny, a great success in 2016. This time, they venture into England with an essentially secular programme devoted to Henry Purcell, varying the mood by alternating between instrumental dances and songs performed by the English countertenor Tim Mead.
