William Byrd, our Phoenix

Philippa Hyde soprano
The John Jenkins Consort

Come and support SVF by enjoying a slap-up tea, starting with a glass of Prosecco, with delicious music mostly by William Byrd, who died almost exactly 400 years ago, in July 1623. SVF favourite Philippa Hyde is accompanied by the John Jenkins Consort of Viols. The music ranges from the profound (the Lament on the death of Thomas Tallis) to the lighthearted (‘Though Amaryllis dance in green’), and even the gloriously silly (an anonymous evocation of springtime birds).

Seating is at round tables with places reserved. When tickets are bought together, the places will all be at the same table. Please let us know if you would like to be seated with people buying their tickets independently.

Tickets: £25 including a glass of prosecco
