About Fretwork
Artist Biography
The viol consort Fretwork has remained one of the world's top ensembles in its field. The group stands apart from other viol consorts in its exploration of unusual repertories, playing, for example, music of Bach on viols and commissioning contemporary music. At first, both in concert and on recordings, Fretwork played the core viol repertory of the English Renaissance; the group's first album, 1987's In Nomine, featured works in the quintessentially English genre of the In Nomine. In addition to viol consort music, Fretwork has recorded consort songs with various early music singers, including a noted group of William Byrd songs with Emma Kirkby. The group has commissioned numerous works by contemporary composers, including Tan Dun and Gavin Bryars. In 2019, it released the vocal album If with countertenor Iestyn Davis. Fretwork returned in 2022 with the album Matthew Locke: The Flat Consort.
