Sit back and enjoy the first of this season's Intimate Notes - a perfectly formed chamber concert bringing you closer to the music, bringing together music from across Baroque Europe to the intimate venue of St. Ann's Church, Manchester.
Starting in London with Purcell, a quick whizz to France, Germany and Italy, before heading back to Handel's London; listen out for the different styles these composers gave to their Baroque music.
