This channel was originally created by Chris Hirst to feature original music by the group Quatrapuntal. Since then it has also come to include Chris's other activities as a lutenist, including solos, explanation videos and collaborations with other musicians. These other videos contain some of the styles that influenced the original Quatrapuntal music so there is a thread which connects the diverse content. The influences include baroque/classical, folk, Portuguese and Neapolitan traditional music, film music, musicals, some popular songs and even heavy metal! Each original Quatrapuntal song has its own unique character and blend of styles. Please subscribe to see the latest videos and help us to produce more content.
