Event Description
Once again, cellist Corrine Frost will be appearing with piano accompaniment from Clare Toomer in a recital of some of Elgar’s works.
Richard Westwood-Brookes will provide an expert narrative giving a background history to each work and its significance in Elgar’s life.
The concert will feature a wide range of works, arranged for cello and piano, including the well-known Nimrod as well as rarely-played pieces such as ‘Romance’. The solo piano piece ‘In Smyrna’ is regarded as Elgar’s finest achievement for piano and altogether the programme will be a welcome and entertaining concert and talk for a December Saturday.
The concert is being staged thanks to the generous sponsorship of The Elgar Society.
This talk/concert will take place twice on Saturday 7 December 2024, at 11am and then at 2pm. With just 60 tickets available per recital, this will not be an event to miss.
The event is free, but normal admission charges apply for the venue. Booking is essential.
