Founded in 2007, Musical Banquet were a trio of Oxfordshire-based musicians who shared a love of Early Music and fine dining. Their novel and entertaining presentation of musical recitals, with groups of items grouped into themed ‘courses’, won them many admirers. Their tally of more than 100 performances in over 50 venues including cathedrals, major churches, and castles, covered the length and breadth of the country, from Weymouth in the south to Dornoch in the far north of Scotland. Besides encountering well known composers, such as William Byrd, John Dowland and Henry Purcell, audiences were introduced to lesser-known Renaissance musical delights from all corners of Europe.
