It’s a special pleasure once again to open our series with a concert by this well-loved baroque ensemble who will delight us once more with a choice of vocal and instrument offerings.
We are delighted to welcome three outstanding musicians, Miaoyin Qu (pianist from China), Ilias Devetzogluo (violinist from Greece) and Pavlos Hoplaros (violinist from Cyprus) who will play popular favourites by Vivaldi, Kreisler, and Ravel..
A baby abandoned. A kingdom in chaos. Can love rewrite a winter’s tale? All on the lawn performed by the PHOENIX AND TURTLE (Theatre of the Dales’ Summer Company).
We are thrilled that this hugely popular choir from Nottingham is able to make a return visit to this year’s series. They appear fresh from appearances on TV and festivals and will take us on a musical repertoire from madrigals to the Beatles. company in a wonderful, pre-tour production full of magic, music and song.
Just back from the Ukraine, oboist Elizabeth and composer- pianist Richard will guide us across cultures and centuries to bring, as always, a wonderful, contrasting array of music for woodwind and piano.!
We’ve managed it once again! A Sunday night of top quality playng from this superb combo of Opera North musicians. Come early if you want to get close.
