Consort of 1 is Lizzie Gutteridge's live-looping Early Music project where she performs historical on historical instruments including recorder, bagpipes, aulos, percussion, sordune, and pipe & tabor. By combining these sounds of the past with some 21st century technology new light is thrown onto ancient music, peeling back, then building up the layers of anything from Medieval dances to lyrical chansons. Historical melodies are given the lightest of modern make-overs with the aid of the live-looping equipment. Much of this material lends itself well to the layers and cycles that can be produced using the loop station, and most, but not all, of these new arrangements are based on the premise of "what might a person from the period when this tune was written have done with this technology, had they had the chance?"Fortunes' wheels is a new adventure for 2026 where Lizzie, carrying a selection of her smaller instruments and a minimalist set-up of loop pedal, amplifier etc., will be ditching the comfort of the car and traveling to performances on her bamboo bicycle (taking it on the train where necessary). This performance is part of a week long trip from Marks Tey near Colchester to Norwich, performing at venues throughout Suffolk & Norfolk.
This is a free event with retiring collection - no need to book in advance.
