From the lyrical elegance of The Lark in the Clear Air to the soaring melodies of Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending, this programme promises to transport you to new heights. Experience Schubert’s delightful Hark, Hark the Lark and the lively first movement of Haydn’s Lark Quartet, all highlighting the charm and grace of the lark.

We’ll also delve into the profound depths of Barber’s Adagio for Strings and the evocative Dover Beach, which will leave you spellbound. Rounding out the evening is Warlock’s vibrant Capriol Suite, a joyful celebration of dance and melody. Don’t miss this chance to experience a rich tapestry of sound that will resonate in your heart long after the final note!

Ticket price includes a glass of wine and nibbles.
