Worcestershire Early Music

Our next concert is on Sunday 25 October, when Red Priest brings Wild Men of the Baroque to Henry Sandon Hall in Worcester. Piers Adams (recorders) and David Wright (keyboard) will perform an exciting programme of Baroque music, ranging from the lesser-known composers of the 17th century to works by Corelli, Handel, Telemann and Biber.

There will also be a free recorder masterclass with Piers Adams from 12–1pm for concert ticket holders. The concert starts at 3.30pm. We hope you’ll be able to join us for an afternoon of wonderful music. Please visit the Events page of this website for more details and to buy tickets.

The Musical & Amicable Society provided our joint audience – as this concert was a collaboration with Worcester Concert Club – with a superb afternoon of music, performing Brandenburg Concerti 3-6. Thank you to all the players who performed for us, as well as to the large and appreciative audience who came along.

As we bring this current season to a close, we very much look ahead to the 2026/7 season, which starts on 25 October 2026 with Piers Adams (recorders) and David Wright (keyboard) performing as “Red Priest”. BBC Music Magazine said of them: “For sheer technical wizardry, charismatic showmanship and expressive devilment, Red Priest is in an exhilarating class of its own.” Tickets will be on sale for this concert very soon – check our Events page for more details in due course.
