About this concert

This very special concert will be our first public performance for a year and a half.

Winter Song, by Judith Weir, is about the need to keep going through hard times, with the prospect of sunshine ahead. Every player is a soloist, each with their own intricate line to perform, forming a chain of melody throughout.

Vaughan Williams’ Fifth Symphony was written and premiered during World War II and evokes an oasis of serenity and hope in times of trouble.
