Taverner Consort, Choir & Players

About Taverner Consort, Choir & Players

The Taverner Consort, Choir and Players - founded 1973 by Andrew Parrott - is one of the world's most interestingly comprehensive musical organisations, whose pioneering work in authentic performance practice has achieved a fuller understanding of Europe's vast musical literature. Under the leadership of their founder and director, Andrew Parrott, the ensembles have established a worldwide reputation for first-rate performances based on adventurous and uncompromising scholarship. Taverner's range of activity, (concerts, recordings, films and publications), encompasses repertoire from over seven centuries - from early medieval music to new commissions, from intimate chamber music to large-scale choral and orchestral works. Yet it pursues each of its musical projects with the same, precise objectives, assembling whatever forces are necessary to reflect the 'sound world' and conventions within which the composer was working. Though broad in its reach, the Taverner enterprise has remained small-scale, thereby retaining the flexibility and versatility which plays such a key role in its continuing success and evolution. Recent seasons have featured collaborations with other ensembles (the Norwegian Baroque Orchestra, Concerto Palatino, the London Mozart Players and, this year, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment), a trend which Taverner is keen to explore and develop further.
