Candlelit lute concert at St Peter’s in Dorchester

Date:

Renowned lutenist Matthew Nisbet will bring the delicate sounds of early music to St Peter’s Church, Dorchester, on Friday 14th November.


After Sunset Fadeth is a historically-informed candlelit programme. Matthew will perform on a range of period instruments, including several types of lute and the baroque guitar, guiding the audience through their history as well as the music written for them. The programme, lasting around 75 minutes without an interval, promises an intimate evening where the atmosphere of candlelight and the rich timbres of these instruments combine to create a rare experience in the heart of Dorchester.
