“Easier than air with air, if spirits embrace” - lutenist Sergio Bucheli curates an evening of music inspired by civil rights activist and early music revivalist Bayard Rustin.
Bayard Rustin worked closely with Martin Luther King Jr and was the main organiser of the March on Washington in 1963. He was also involved with the early music revival in New York during the 1950s and 1960s having learnt the lute whilst in jail in California for the “crime of sodomy” (as it was at the time). Tonight’s setlist features baroque songs that he recorded and performed in New York by Purcell, Cornysh and Dowland, as well as his own pastiche Elizabethan song ‘I saw her as I came and went’.
Tickets: £15 suggested price - or 'pay what you choose' (from £8 minimum)
