The concert will include a sonata not performed in the UK since about 1740.

Piccolo e Grande are Enzo Puzzovio and Stewart McCoy who have both performed professionally since 1984.

They teamed up four years ago to explore non-mainstream music from the baroque period.

Their featured instrument is the mandolino, together with an antique hurdy-gurdy. All the music is accompanied by the theorbo.

Their Gringley concert is on Saturday, June 18 at 7.30pm. Entry is free with a retiring collection at the end.
