About English Ayres

English Ayres is a circle of musicians dedicated to performing early music, traditional and English music in such a way that it is never boring. We aim for a fresh sound, and lively storytelling. Jeni Melia has studied with Mary Bainbridge and Ruth Holton, and has participated in masterclasses with Emma Kirkby, with whom she has studied privately. She sings with the Concord Singers and has performed solos in Purcell's Dido and Aeneas, Faure's Requiem
