The Flautadors
Recorder
Quartet
is established as
the UK's leading recorder ensemble having won a variety of
awards since their formation in 1997. Their repertoire
spans eight centuries and is performed on a huge range of
instruments from the sub contra bass to the tiny garklein
flötlein.
Recordings of both modern and early music have received
critical acclaim and are frequently played on the BBC as well as
radio stations across Europe. Described as 'exciting',
'dazzling' and with 'phenomenal technique', concerts by The
Flautadors provide a fresh insight into the music they play.
A new
recording for Deux-elles "Music for the Queen of Scots" to be
released shortly. This CD takes the listener on a journey
through the life of Mary, Queen of Scots and features 16th
century Scottish gems, French renaissance dances and glorious
polyphony performed on a beautiful consort of recorders made by
Thomas Prescott and percussion played by Corrina Silvester.
