Loki Music

This concert will focus on the songs, dances and letters of Ignatius Sancho [c.1729 - 1780], the former slave who became a servant, acquired an education from benevolent employers and made himself into a man of letters, culture and commerce. Sancho and Garrick knew each other, corresponded, and collaborated on a group of songs. This will be our contribution to Black History Month.

This concert is part of a regular series of early music performances held in the Georgian jewel of Garrick's Temple to Shakespeare [https://www.garrickstemple.org.uk], which sits by the Thames in Hampton.

Admission is always cheaper when booked in advance, and there are concessions for under-21s, students, the unemployed and volunteers at the venue. On the door, tickets cost £16 - with half price concessions for the same people.

Anyone able and willing to listen is welcome to come along, and there is no need to print this ticket as a record is kept at the front desk. To buy tickets, click here.
