As the Baroque Music Workshop of Hounslow Adult Education Music Centre, we staged productions of Handel’s Acis and Galatea in 2002 and Purcell’s Faerie Queene in 2003. We re-formed as an independent group, Isleworth Baroque, in 2004 and performed one of the very first English operas ever written, John Blow’s Venus and Adonis, composed in 1683.
