Thomas Dunford Archlute

Our gala celebration features a recital from the world’s most in-demand lutenist, Thomas Dunford. Called the “Eric Clapton of the lute” by BBC Music Magazine, Dunford will present music for solo archlute to a special audience of just 100 of our most loyal patrons.

Founding director of the elite Jupiter Ensemble, Dunford has gained worldwide recognition with recitals from Carnegie Hall to the Kennedy Center, as well as at major European festivals and venues in South America, India, China, and Japan.

Come celebrate 50 years of Music Before 1800 with food and drink, auctions and prizes, games and toasts, and stay for a rare chance to hear Dunford up close, with music by Dowland, Marais, Bach, Satie, and others.

‘There’s no mistaking the signature stamp: Thomas Dunford was here.’
