Summer / Late Spring Concert of Lili Boulanger, Bantock, Gipps and Elgar

Our final concert of the main season takes place at St Giles Cripplegate, with a spring-themed programme that highlights innovation and intensity.

Lili Boulanger's shimmering miniature Dun matin de printemps offers a radiant start, followed by Bantock's evocative Russian Scenes.

The spotlight then turns to a rare performance of Ruth Gipps's lyrical and beautifully crafted Oboe Concerto (soloist Ewan Millar, whose appearance is kindly supported by Making Music's Philip & Dorothy Green Young Artists scheme).

The season concludes with Elgar's Symphony No. 1, a masterwork of nobility, pathos, and English symphonic brilliance.
