 nly)\n\nPalisander prides itself on presenting imaginative\, historical pr
 ogrammes with a wide range of repertoire\; performing largely from memory\
 , on recorders up to 6 feet tall. The quartet has quickly established itse
 lf as a vibrant young ensemble. Devising their own choreography\, as well 
 as writing new compositions and unique arrangements for the ensemble\, the
  group’s members are keen ambassadors for the recorder’s versatility. 
 This is brought to life in the exciting theatrical concerts for which Pali
 sander is known.\n\n“Palisander – making recorders phenomenally intere
 sting and exciting” – Katie Derham\, BBC Radio 3\, 2019.\n\nThe theme 
 of this evening’s performance is 'You Make Me Feel Like Dancing'. The na
 tural impulse to move our body to music has been documented as far back as
  our ancestors' ancestors. Throughout history\, humans have danced to cele
 brate\, to heal\, to bond\, to entertain\, to exercise and above all\, for
  fun! In this programme\, Palisander presents bespoke sets of dances from 
 history\, playing a selection of recorders from 6 inches to 6 feet tall\, 
 featuring music spanning more than 1000 years.\n\nMuch of the repertoire i
 s unique to Palisander\, having been written for\, or developed by the ens
 emble and includes exotic traditional dances from the Mediterranean\; a hi
 storic Queen of England’s pre-breakfast dance workout\, and even dances 
 performed as a historical antidote to a spider’s poison!\n\nAs well as t
 raditional melodies recorded by history’s dancing masters\, this program
 me also includes music by Dolmetsch contemporaries Imogen Holst\, Benjamin
  Britten and Edmund Rubbra.\n\nPalisander are Tabea Debus\, Lydia Gosnell\
 , Caoimhe de Paor and Lizzie Knatt.\n\nTonight’s concert is the highligh
 t of the Dolmetsch Festival Centenary Celebration\, a weekend of recorder 
 workshops\, talks and recitals celebrating the centenary and legacy of the
  Dolmetsch Early Music Festival.\n\nThe Dolmetsch Early Music Festival\, a
 lso known as the Haslemere Festival\, was founded in 1925 by Arnold Dolmet
 sch\, who was largely responsible for the revival of the recorder\, both a
 s a serious concert instrument\, and as an instrument which made early mus
 ic accessible to amateur performers. He went on to promote the recorder as
  an instrument for teaching music in schools.\n\n[button link="https://www
