Merevale church, Atherstone

 
The speaking in between really made it, we loved having the context and your jokes were really funny
 
Great atmosphere, we never thought we’d see anything as good as this in our local area!
 
We’ve travelled from all over, a lot of Memf members here today.
 
I live in Kettering and travelled over to Merevale. I think I’ll try and get my own group set up and get some local people together!
 
I’m fascinated by the big instrument!
 
All I can say is …..Michaela Petri, eat your heart out!  I loved it…it was wonderful!
 
I used to teach recorder many years ago and loved helping the children with their music.
 
Really magnificent  - will you please come again?

St Michaels Church, Aynho, Northamptonshire

I would like to send my sincere thanks and appreciation for the magical performance of Sounds Historical last night. Please do pass this message on to Lynda, Mary and Alison.
It was a real pleasure and privilege to present the group at St. Michael’s. Your very skilled performance carried your audience through a most delightful journey of the music and culture of 18th century Europe.  From a purely personal point of view you transported me back to a moment in life which I deeply treasure.
Please do come back to us next year

St Barnabas & St Nicholas Church, 
Burmington, Shipston-on-Stour

As a symphony orchestra wind player I’m accustomed to buckling up and reaching for earplugs when there’s a climax coming so it was a real pleasure to be inveigled into a sound world of a gentler, sweeter kind. Winding my tentative way through deep Cotswold lanes, I found myself in the pleasant Stour valley, to a diminutive but charming country church, where I was invited on a traditional musical Grand Tour. My hosts on this occasion were four talented ladies, from all points of the country, on their first group outing. In a breathless but absorbing hour-and-a-half I was whisked from the heady culture of Versailles, through Holland and Germany, to the splendour of northern Italy. Interspersing the charmingly informative and witty narrative were finely executed musical extracts – complete recorder sonatas, duets for transverse flutes, short pieces to show off the wonderful collection of period instruments including viols, theorbo, an entrancingly delicate early mandolin – it was a veritable feast for the eye as much as the ear. My bags are already packed for the next trip!

I loved it…I felt so honoured to see this live rather than on the tv !
 
I’m starting a new business this week and your concert just took ny mind off it.
Usually when I hear chamber music on the radio it’s not always my cup of tea but I absolutely loved this!
I love Period drama and I never ever thought I’d get to see something like this in real life
 
Wonderful concert - I enjoyed every note!

Thank you @soundshistorical for such a stunning set and broadening our minds


The Grand Tour is nothing short of wonderful and inspiring . A journey beautifully told and exquisitely performed. A cultural memory our family will cherish. 
 
Such an amazing performance.  Wow!
