Come and hear University of Southampton Music students perform beautiful English songs and folk tunes, including poetry by John Keats and John Milton, Wordsworth's Invocation to Science, and beloved children's songs such as Three Blind Mice and Come Lasses and Lads, all accompanied on a fortepiano dating from 1802.
Enjoy a twenty-minute programme on the hour, every hour. In between performances, you can have a go at playing the fortepiano yourself with Professor David Owen Norris!
Special challenge: Can you find the pedals?
