Step into the vibrant musical world of early eighteenth-century London, where a remarkable group of expatriate composers found fame and opportunity in the city’s thriving theatre scene. Drawn to the energy and ambition of London around 1720, these gifted musicians brought with them a rich continental style that helped shape the sound of the capital’s stages.
This program celebrates their remarkable creativity and the stories behind their journeys—tales of ambition, collaboration and artistic exchange in one of Europe’s most exciting musical centres. Though once widely admired, many of these composers are now rarely heard. Their music reveals a captivating blend of drama, elegance and virtuosity, offering a fresh perspective on a fascinating chapter of musical history.
