A truly imaginative, revelatory exploration of the English madrigal, from the golden age of the Elizabethan court right through to the best contemporary British composers. Exaudi is recognised as one of Britain’s most exciting young vocal ensembles, with a reputation for audacious programming and high-definition performance of great vocal repertoire.
‘If only more concerts could be like this: focused, risky, brilliant.’
