The Edinburgh Renaissance Band are joined by Polyhymnia Dancers in the ever-popular Viol Rackett Show, with a fresh programme for 2019 of music, song and dance from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance. The award-winning troupe of twelve musicians show off a large range of period instruments, including shawms, cornetti, sackbuts, nakers, crumhorms, viols, fiddles, crumhorns, gemshorns, bells, whistles, bagpipes, racketts and a serpent. This delightful show is accessible for all ages and members of the audience are invited to take a close look at the instruments in the interval and after the concert.
