Evelyn Nallen’s Baroque Group

The Weaver Ensemble, comprising Evelyn Nallen (recorder); David Gordon (harpsichord); and Chiara Vinci (voice and dance) recreate an evening of music, song and dance from the London stage of the 1700s, including extracts from The Loves of Mars & Venus (John Weaver), which has been called the first modern ballet. They will also perform music by Purcell and Handel. Evelyn works at Royal Academy of Music, and has made a special study of early eighteenth century dance.
