The Waites of Gloucester are modelled on the band of musicians run by the City of Gloucester in the 16th and 17th centuries. The Waites also perform locally in the Cotswolds under the name Her Majestie’s Pleasure.
Enthusiasts for the music of the renaissance, apart from the pleasure of playing together, they enjoy introducing people to a range of instruments they may never otherwise have seen, and which sound distinctly different to modern ears.
Between them they have have well over 100 instruments of the period.
Come along to the musical evening at the Corinium Museum and hear some music from the Tudor and Jacobean periods.
Enjoy the music followed by a glass of wine, delicious canapés and chance to wander around the museum. Doors open at 7.15pm. All profits go to Cirencester Housing for Young People (Chyp), helping local young homeless people.
Tickets cost £15 and are available from the Chyp Charity Shop at 20 The Waterloo, Cirencester, or ring 01285 651227 for more details.
