SUMMARY:Preludes Music
DESCRIPTION:Preludes Music\, the education arm of the Bristol Ensemble\, continues its work in areas of Bristol that are experiencing high levels of economic disadvantage and aims to put music at the heart of every child’s education. By doing so we improve confidence\, co-ordination\, speech and language and benefit all other areas of their learning. \nPreludes Music has been running successfully since 2009 in several schools areas of Bristol. It is the most extensive project of its type in the country and grew from discussions between Roger Huckle of the Bristol Ensemble\, Professor Leslie Bunt of the University of the West of England and James Wetz a former Head Teacher. \nFind out more at www.bristolensemble.com/preludes

SUMMARY:If Opera: Lucia di Lammermoor
DESCRIPTION:Gaetano Donizetti Lucia di Lammermoor \nDirector Thomas Guthrie\nConductor Oliver Gooch\nDesigner Ruth Paton \nWith the Bristol Ensemble and If Opera chorus\nOrchestral reduction supplied by Pocket Publications \nSung in Italian with English surtitles \nLibretto by Salvadore Cammarano\, based on Sir Walter Scott’s novel The Bride of Lammermoor\nFirst performed 26th September 1835 at Teatro di San Carlo\, Naples \nMadly in love… \nOne of the most revered of 19th century operas\, Lucia di Lammermoor follows the fortunes of Lucia (Lucy Ashton) sister of the Lord of Lammermoor\, and the enmity they have for the Ravenswood family. Lucia is in love with Edgardo of the Ravenswoods\, but her brother Enrico\, has other plans for her matrimony. \nThe opera is a gothic thriller\, complete with ghostly apparitions\, duels and acts of revenge. But it has become most famous for the elongated\, so-called ‘mad scene’ in which Lucia\, having murdered her imposed husband Arturo\, embarks on one of the most challenging and thrilling arias in the entire repertoire\, ‘Il dolce suono’. \nTo project the power of this opera and Donizetti’s beautiful music to full advantage\, we have reconfigured the seating so that the audience surrounds the stage and the opera is directed as an ‘in the round’ performance. This creates real proximity with the performance and an immersive experience for this most thrilling of dramas\, particularly for the front row seats surrounding the stage. \nWith a stellar cast directed by Thomas Guthrie\, an innovative and award-winning British director\, and conducted by Oliver Gooch\, Lucia di Lammermoor is the magnificent centrepiece of the If Opera 2024 season. \nTickets\n£20.00 – £115.00 Members\n£20.00 – £120.00 Non-members \nTickets on sale now at Bath Box Office online or by phone on 01225 463 362  \nChildren aged 12+ are welcome & under 18s go free (limited availability\, please enquire at Bath Box Office) \nNo dogs are permitted\, except for assistance dogs

SUMMARY:If Opera: Die Fledermaus
DESCRIPTION:Johann Strauss II Die Fledermaus\nLibretto by Richard Genée and Karl Haffner \nConductor Thomas Blunt\nDirector/Narrator Simon Butteriss \nWith the Bristol Ensemble and If Opera chorus\nOrchestral reduction supplied by Pocket Publications \nSung in English with surtitles \nFirst performed 5th April 1874 at the Theater an der Wien\, Vienna \nA farcical story fizzing with disguises… \nIn the repertoire of opera houses throughout Europe\, certain operettas have lost none of their sparkle. Chief among them is Johann Strauss’s effervescent Die Fledermaus\, with its seemingly endless parade of gorgeous melodies and stirring waltzes. The opera is a whirlwind of romantic ruses\, false identities\, practical jokes\, infidelities\, confusions and Champagne. \nThis is a Fledermaus with a difference. In this specially staged and costumed performance\, comic genius Simon Butteriss replaces the operetta’s original spoken dialogue with a racy and pacy narration that follows every twist and turn of this ludicrous tale. Witty\, clever and with knowing nods to the present day\, it is delivered with Butteriss’ customary flamboyance and panache. This unique presentation is “in short\, the perfect blend of Viennese Schlagobers and English salt” (The Times) and not to be missed! \nTickets\n£20.00 – £95.00 Members\n£20.00 – £100.00 Non-members \nTickets on sale now at Bath Box Office online or by phone on 01225 463 362 \nChildren aged 7+ are welcome & under 18’s go free (limited availability\, please enquire at Bath Box Office) \nNo dogs are permitted\, except for assistance dogs

SUMMARY:If Opera: Little Red Riding Hood
DESCRIPTION:Roald Dahl’s Little Red Riding Hood\nMusic by Paul Patterson\nText adapted from Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes by Donald Sturrock \nWolves aren’t always as clever as they think they are… \nLittle Red Riding Hood\, from Roald Dahl’s wicked Revolting Rhymes\, is brought to life in this sparkling musical adaptation by composer Paul Patterson. Join the Bristol Ensemble’s wind quintet and piano on a magical narrated journey through the Enchanted Forest with our heroine\, Little Red Riding Hood\, and one slightly dim wolf\, whose dastardly deeds are thwarted at every turn by a cast of quirky characters.  \nAlthough ideal for 4- to 11-year-olds\, it is also a sharply funny and inspiring treat for adults too. Soprano and vocal animateur Lynsey Docherty narrates this hilarious twist on the fairy-tale classic. It’s a short burst of pure magic that never fails to entertain\, and a wonderful way to introduce budding musicians to the instruments of the orchestra. \nBring a picnic to enjoy before the show\, treat yourself to an ice cream from Garbanzo’s and go on your own fairy tale adventure as you explore the secret pathways\, hidden grotto and landscaped lawns of Belcombe Court’s glorious gardens\, which are rarely open to the public. \nThere will be two performances of Little Red Riding Hood\, the second will be BSL interpreted and a relaxed performance.  \nAt this performance\, we welcome people who will benefit from a more relaxed theatre environment\, including those with hearing impairments who require British Sign Language interpretation.  \nTickets\n£11 – £19 \nTickets available from Bath Box Office online or by phone on 01225 463 362. \nSunday 25 August \nPerformance 1:\n12.45pm Gardens open for picnics and exploring\n2pm Performance starts \nPerformance 2 (BSL interpreted and relaxed performance):\n3.15pm Gardens open for picnics and exploring\n4.30pm Performance starts \nApproximate running time: 45 minutes \nMost suitable for ages 4-11 years old\nChildren under 3 go free when sharing a seat \nNo dogs are permitted\, except for assistance dogs

SUMMARY:If Opera: Lucia di Lammermoor
DESCRIPTION:Gaetano Donizetti Lucia di Lammermoor \nDirector Thomas Guthrie\nConductor Oliver Gooch\nDesigner Ruth Paton \nWith the Bristol Ensemble and If Opera chorus\nOrchestral reduction supplied by Pocket Publications \nSung in Italian with English surtitles \nLibretto by Salvadore Cammarano\, based on Sir Walter Scott’s novel The Bride of Lammermoor\nFirst performed 26th September 1835 at Teatro di San Carlo\, Naples \nMadly in love… \nOne of the most revered of 19th century operas\, Lucia di Lammermoor follows the fortunes of Lucia (Lucy Ashton) sister of the Lord of Lammermoor\, and the enmity they have for the Ravenswood family. Lucia is in love with Edgardo of the Ravenswoods\, but her brother Enrico\, has other plans for her matrimony. \nThe opera is a gothic thriller\, complete with ghostly apparitions\, duels and acts of revenge. But it has become most famous for the elongated\, so-called ‘mad scene’ in which Lucia\, having murdered her imposed husband Arturo\, embarks on one of the most challenging and thrilling arias in the entire repertoire\, ‘Il dolce suono’. \nTo project the power of this opera and Donizetti’s beautiful music to full advantage\, we have reconfigured the seating so that the audience surrounds the stage and the opera is directed as an ‘in the round’ performance. This creates real proximity with the performance and an immersive experience for this most thrilling of dramas\, particularly for the front row seats surrounding the stage. \nWith a stellar cast directed by Thomas Guthrie\, an innovative and award-winning British director\, and conducted by Oliver Gooch\, Lucia di Lammermoor is the magnificent centrepiece of the If Opera 2024 season. \nTickets\n£20.00 – £115.00 Members\n£20.00 – £120.00 Non-members \nTickets on sale now at Bath Box Office online or by phone on 01225 463 362  \nChildren aged 12+ are welcome & under 18s go free (limited availability\, please enquire at Bath Box Office) \nNo dogs are permitted\, except for assistance dogs

SUMMARY:If Opera: Die Fledermaus
DESCRIPTION:Johann Strauss II Die Fledermaus\nLibretto by Richard Genée and Karl Haffner \nConductor Thomas Blunt\nDirector/Narrator Simon Butteriss \nWith the Bristol Ensemble and If Opera chorus\nOrchestral reduction supplied by Pocket Publications \nSung in English with surtitles \nFirst performed 5th April 1874 at the Theater an der Wien\, Vienna \nA farcical story fizzing with disguises… \nIn the repertoire of opera houses throughout Europe\, certain operettas have lost none of their sparkle. Chief among them is Johann Strauss’s effervescent Die Fledermaus\, with its seemingly endless parade of gorgeous melodies and stirring waltzes. The opera is a whirlwind of romantic ruses\, false identities\, practical jokes\, infidelities\, confusions and Champagne. \nThis is a Fledermaus with a difference. In this specially staged and costumed performance\, comic genius Simon Butteriss replaces the operetta’s original spoken dialogue with a racy and pacy narration that follows every twist and turn of this ludicrous tale.

This will be an epic performance for orchestra and choir\, approximately one hour in length (7-8pm\, or 9-10pm).

SUMMARY:Lunchtime Chamber Concert: Schubert String Quintet in C
DESCRIPTION:The Somerset International Festival of the Arts’ lunchtime concert features one of the greatest of all chamber music works – Schubert’s Quintet in C\, with international performers in the intimate surroundings of St Andrew’s Church. ​ \nSchubert’s final chamber work is widely considered one of the great achievements in Western Culture.  The sublime slow movement is a true masterpiece\, and is often described as the epitome of coming to terms with the end of life.  It holds a unique place in the history of music\, with the famous novelist Thomas Mann asked for it to be played on his deathbed\, as did pianist Arthur Rubinstein\, and the composer Benjamin Britten considered “Schubert’s final year as the most miraculous year in the history of music.”
