Kitchen Conversations

About the show

On Saturday, the ensemble presents Kitchen Conversations, an engaging narrated programme combining music, storytelling and conviviality. Inspired by the kitchen as the heart of the home, it explores traditions of food, hospitality and conversation through a lively selection of Baroque music.

Join us in our imagined kitchen as we prepare and share a meal for friends. As the gathering unfolds, conversation deepens, unexpected musical ingredients emerge, and a rich Baroque sound world offers both nourishment and delight. Once hidden from view in Handelâs time, the kitchen was no less a place of drama and energy - a space of work, preparation and human exchange.
