Sébastien Daucé and Ensemble Correspondances are renowned for recordings and performances that merge passion and elegance. For this virtual event, they are joined by the hauntingly expressive voice of Lucile Richardot in a showcase of English songs from the politically turbulent 17th century. Indulge in a fascinating exploration of England’s musical evolution, as continental influences and social upheaval shaped the period between Dowland and Purcell.

In their journey between these two pillars, the ensemble discovers an incredible musical world in which political and religious instability have created space for experimentation and novelty. The presence of French artists and the return of Charles II from exile colored English musical taste with the sounds of Grand Siècle France—the very sounds Ensemble Correspondances is best known for communicating. We witness the appearance of the first English recitatives and the birth of the masque, as the stage is cleared for the advent of English opera.

This program is presented in partnership with the Morgan Library & Museum, New York.
