What a wonderful evening!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for last night’s concert. Your support means a great deal to us.

Thank you to our incredible musicians for the commitment that brought the programme to life and a heartfelt thanks to our conductor Jeremy Carnell for your inspiring leadership.

It was particularly lovely to see the church so full. Moments like these remind us why live music matters.

So honoured to have Pietro Lusvardi play his

🎶 Next concert spotlight: Elfrida Andrée 🎶

We’re really excited to be performing music by Elfrida Andrée at our next concert. A remarkable Swedish composer, organist and conductor, Andrée was a true trailblazer — opening doors for women in professional music long before it was the norm.

Her music is bold, lyrical and full of character, and we can’t wait to share it with you as part of this programme.

Only a few hours left to put the finishing touches on for you. There is one treeny weeny piece with no bass part so I briefly took the weight off…. Will Yanni wear shorts tonight?!

View from the bass here: checking in that you are excited for our next concert (12 July). Despite the enormity of my wonderful instrument, both Brahms and Moeran have showered me with interesting notes. If you enjoy watching musicians focus, this is the concert for you…
