Supporters of the Continuo Foundation include violinist Rachel Podger
A new UK charity set up in response to the plight of period instrument ensembles effected by the pandemic is now accepting applications for its first round of financial aid.
The Continuo Foundation has raised £100,000 since it was established in October last year, and has attracted the support of Rachel Podger, Emma Kirkby and Roger Norrington. Its founder, Tina Vadaneaux, says: ’This remarkable response reflects the widespread recognition of the urgent need to retain … musicians whose virtuosity and scholarship underpin the sector, and to provide hope of a career in music for the next generation of artists.’

Orlando Lassus wrote a staggering number of pieces about wine, covering all genres from sacred to secular and everything in between. They tell us much about life, trade, and feasting in Munich in the second half of the 16th century, but also show that Lassus was quite the wine connoisseur: not only in drinking the best wines across Europe, but even his knowledge of wine production.
For this first of two programmes, Hannah French is joined down the line from New York by wine historian Ron Merlino to explore the music of Lassus while tasting some of the types of wine he encountered at the Court of Duke Albrecht V in Munich.
