Strawberry Fields

About

New York City’s ensemble Ruckus has a unique and playful approach to the world of early music, drawing inspiration from the groove of American roots music and the rhythm of jazz. The group’s fresh take on English Country Dances from the 18th century, with their gavottes and minuets, presents a pairing of Handel’s music with the British African composer Ignatius Sancho, and a wink to the Beatles’s hit song.
