About Charles Avison

Charles Avison, born in 1709 in Newcastle upon Tyne, was a pioneering English composer and organist whose work bridged the Baroque and Classical periods. Avison's musical journey began in the churches of Newcastle, where he served as an organist at St John The Baptist and St Nicholas's Church. His compositions, which include over 80 works, are notable for their transitional style, blending the ornate Baroque idiom with the emerging Classical forms.

Avison is perhaps best known for his 12 Concerti Grossi after Scarlatti, which showcase his mastery of the concerto form. His Essay on Musical Expression, published in 1752, was a groundbreaking work, marking the first instance of music criticism in the English language. This essay, along with his compositions, reflects Avison's deep engagement with the musical culture of his time and his willingness to challenge established norms, as seen in his advocacy for the music of his mentor, Francesco Geminiani, over that of Handel.

Avison's legacy extends beyond his compositions, encompassing his roles as a teacher, conductor, and performer. By the time he reached his 50s, he had established himself as a significant figure in English music, leaving an indelible mark on the musical landscape of his era. His works, which include a variety of instrumental pieces such as sonatas and concerti, continue to be celebrated for their innovation and artistic merit. Avison passed away in 1770, leaving behind a rich musical heritage that continues to inspire and inform.
