Music for a Summer's Evening

Join St Cecilia Orchestra at Holy Trinity Church for a beautiful programme of music evoking the sights and sounds of a summer's evening.

Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez, performed by guitarist Chris Godhard, takes centre stage.

Named after the famous royal site near Madrid, and brought to great popularity in the UK in the film Brassed Off, the concerto's melodies evoke 'the perfume of magnolias, the singing of birds and the gush of fountains'.

Kodaly's pastoral Summer Evening, Ravel's nostalgic Pavane pour une Infante Defunte and Poulenc's light-hearted Sinfonietta complete the programme.
