Fabulous concert tonight by @ContrapunctusUK, exploring the stunning music of the 17th century. Music, more than anything else, gives me hope for the future. Humans have an amazing capacity to find beauty in the darkest times. And 300 years later, what survives of us is love.
Join us tomorrow evening @QueensCollegeOx for glorious choral music from the English Restoration. 🎟 https://t.co/Qb0gIp0mEq
