We celebrate Shakespeare’s 400th anniversary in style, with Stile Antico’s stunning madrigal concert and William Lyons and Peter Oswald’s exploration of Shakespeare’s theatre. There’s virtuosic Venetian music from Carole Cerasi’s delightful harpsichord, and the majestic glory of St Mark’s Basilica in Monteverdi’s Vespers. Enjoy the haunting art of Dowland with Emma Kirkby, The City Musick rollicking through German streets, The Brook Street Band on fire with Corelli, and Joanna MacGregor performing Bach’s life-affirming Well-Tempered Clavier. Innovative creativity abounds this week, meshing improvisation, Arabic culture and medieval literature. Experience late night poetry and jazz from Huw Warren and Alice Oswald; a rare performance of Terry Riley’s In C; Stevie Wishart’s Transients; and Middle Eastern sacred music, lullabies and love songs, led by the Lebanese master Abdul Salam Kheir.

The result is a programme of unparalleled inventiveness and quality, firing new works and artistic 46
