The Masque Project Players

Originating from the masked balls of Henry VI, this form of extravagant royal entertainment is rarely heard in performances today. These musical sketches are colourful and dramatic, featuring weighty portrayals of virtue, peace, heaven and earth alongside slapstick caricature moments of dancing bears, drunken brawls and feuding sisters.  With a musical band of viols, lutes, harp and a line up of top-flight soloists, this is proper old-fashioned entertainment.
