Concert Royal
(Early Music)

Concert Royal is Rachel Gray (violoncello), Peter Harrison (flute) and John Treherne (harpsichord). They are one of England’s longest established early music ensembles. For over 50 years they have given their programmes of Georgian music to music societies and other organisations throughout the length and breadth of the land and there have been memorable South Bank and Wigmore Hall concerts.

Presenting historically appropriate music Concert Royal has performed extensively for The National Trust. Stourhead, Wallington Hall, Beningbrough Hall and many more of our great country houses have welcomed the ensemble over the years. Abroad they have toured extensively in Europe and the USA and for the British Council in South America.

They aim to entertain and engage audiences with unique opportunities to travel back to the late eighteenth century to enjoy historically informed performances on instruments whose voices were first heard more than 250 years ago. 

They gave three concerts for our society in the late 1990s and asked if they could visit Middlewich again in what will be their last touring season.
