Background: In the medieval Great Hall at Dartington England late on a summer's evening in 1995 Colin Booth played a short concert entitled Dark Harpsichord Music. The hall was lit as usual at the start of the programme and as each piece was played the lights were dimmed so that by the end only a few flickering candles played on the ancient stonework.

Birds giving their last song of the day beyond the gothic windows added to the atmosphere inside the hall. This CD aims to bring the spirit of that concert to a larger audience
