17th century England was a hotbed of religious and political upheaval. It also saw the emergence of Broken Consorts, collections of dissimilar instruments playing together in chamber settings. Hear how composers such as John Dowlnad, William Lawes, and Thomas Morley managed to survive and create music of unearthly beauty even for these motley ensembles when they found themselves at odds with the church and crown.

Curtis Foster, recorders • Miriam Scholz-Carlson, violin • Julie Elhard, treble and bass viols • Phillip Rukavina, lutes
