Telemann, Schmelzer and Charles Burney

In the 1770s the pioneering musicologist Charles Burney embarked upon a musical grand tour of Europe, seeking out all the latest continental innovations.

In a new collaboration with Brighton Early Music Festival, BREMF Live! members Apollo’s Cabinet bring their signature mix of acting, dancing, poetry and silliness to bear on a kaleidoscopic recreation of Burney’s travels, with music from every country he visited, intercut with readings from his journals.
