Events to 25th May
&Piano returns for it’s 5th festival – celebrating amazing live classical music performed by top professional musicians from across the North of England. This year we’re celebrating the work of British composer Madeleine Dring, who wrote a number of jazzy, catch and entertaining songs, and pieces for Bassoon and Oboe, to mark the recent centenary of her birth.
We have another fantastic line up, with incredible singers, musicians from Opera North, and the world premiere of a new song cycle by emerging composer Alice Beckwith setting poems by poet laureate Simon Armitage.
Please click on the link under Further Information for more details and online booking.
