Full Event Details
This ‘Intimate Notes’ concert showcases our historical instruments at their very best. With a selection of solo pieces and works for small ensemble, you will hear the beauty of each instrument in breathtaking detail. This concert places a spotlight on the most popular woodwind instrument of the period, the Flute. We will guide you through the exceptionally intricate sound of two flutes with cello and harpsichord in this programme of music with a distinctly French flavour. This concert is an opportunity to hear two of our hugely talented Early Career Fellows, Daniel and James.
