That sounds like my sort of concert, and not too far from home!

Weelkes & Praetorius are included I speed read that as Whelks and Praties. Wonder if that is what early musicians ate...

Sounds good to me to - and just down the road. May well get there. Even without the seafood and chips:-)

They ate peascods, pears, chestnuts, figs, black pepper, pickle, jack pudding, oranges & lemons, sage leaf, beans, aniseed, and of course lots of maggots (an early form of stilton?).
Who knows what we'll offer at the interval refreshments...
