Skipton Music Presents: Audacium Baroque Ensemble

Featuring award-winning Brazilian soprano Gabriella Di Laccio, Audacium Baroque Ensemble specialises in music from the 17^th and 18^th centuries with a focus on works by lesser-known (but equally interesting and significant!) women composers.

For this concert the group presents a varied selection of works for soprano and continuo as well as solo harpsichord/voice/guitar, bringing to life over 500 years of neglected music written by women from the 17^th century to the present day. Featured composers include Barbara Strozzi, Francesca Caccini and Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre.

Soprano Gabriella Di Laccio is the founder of the groundbreaking charity ‘Donne: Women in Music’ and was named one of the BBC’s 100 most influential women of the world in 2018 – for more information see gabrielladilaccio.com and donne-uk.org
