This concert is simply not to be missed. 2024 saw the beginning of a flamboyant new collaboration between Baroque violinist Julia Bishop and acclaimed lutenist Paula Chateauneuf. We are delighted that they are coming to play for Music Box Wealden.

Their programme will include works – which Julia describes as ‘wonderful and wacky’ – by Biber, Schmelzer, Corelli and others.

Julia Bishop lives locally and has extensive experience as soloist and leader with all the period instrument orchestras of the UK. She is co-founder of the ensemble Red Priest – described as ‘in an exhilarating class of its own’ by BBC Music Magazine.

Lutenist Paula Chateauneuf, soloist, accompanist, teacher and linchpin of numerous ensembles, has earned a reputation as one of the most respected and admired musicians in the early music world. ‘One of the most exciting things on the pre-classical concert circuit’.

Both artists are widely recorded.
