Extra-Infos: Works By Matthew Locke
Description:Flat Consort is an album by Fretwork, released in 2022. The album is a classical CD. New disc from critically praised early music ensemble. Released for 400th anniversary of british composer Matthew Locke. Matthew Locke was born 400 years ago in 1622, and while he is often ranked as one of Englandâ??s finest composers, he is still unaccountably neglected: his music may not be as immediately appealing as his immediate successor, Henry Purcell, nor as wide-ranging as William Byrd, yet his forceful musical personality and luxuriant technique place him in the first echelon of English composers, with his works described by Richard Boothby of Fretwork as having a "quixotic, capricious restlessness that is constantly challenging the listener to follow his argument ... a thrilling musical ride". Accompanying Fretwork on continuo for this recording are David Miller (archlute and theorbo) and Silas Wollston (harpsichord). The cover of the album bares an inscription in the walls by the choir stall of Exeter Cathedral, thought to have been carved by the composer during his time as a member of the choir there. - WORKS BY MATTHEW LOCKE

In 2021, Fretwork celebrated it's 35th anniversary. In the past three and a half decades they have explored the core repertory of great English consort music, from Taverner to Purcell, and made classic recordings against which others are judged. Their recent critically-praised releases with Signum include If and Lamento - both with counter-tenor Iestyn Davies - and In Nomine 2 (BBC Music Magazine).
