About this Act
The Galloway Consort was formed in 1985 from a group of musicians who fell under the influence of David Munrow and his spirited revival of 15th-17th music.
The group provides costumed entertainment of renaissance music from the courts of Europe on appropriate instruments - viols, recorders, early reed instruments, renaissance guitar, lute and all manner of percussion. A singer may also be added if required.
The group also offers educational programs for all ages on instruments of the renaissance.
