GLORIANA – AN ELIZABETHAN PROGRESS – Music from late 16th century England
This concert is a key event in the Leek Arts Festival and PIVA will be performing on Sunday, 28th April at 6.30pm. This new programme will tell the story of Elizabeth I and her progresses through England.
An Elizabethan progress was a lavish and costly affair, with citizens, courtiers and civic authorities going to great lengths to ensure that their Queen received the very best they could offer whether it was food, accommodation or entertainment. PIVA aims to capture the festive flavour of these events by a presenting programme of popular dance and ballad music that could have been heard on such a journey. Playing music from country house and stately court through to rowdy tavern and village green, this entertaining show will be accompanied by stories and contemporary accounts of the Progresses.
