Orchestral concert for Whiting Bay


On Sunday March 24th, the eleven players who make up an orchestra called Kammerphilharmonie Europa (Chamber Philharmony of Europe) will be giving a concert in Whiting Bay Hall at 3.00pm. The programme is an absolute delight. It includes such well-loved favourites as the Bach Double Violin Concerto, and much else besides. Here is the complete list:

Vivaldi – Concerto for Violin No.4 a minor RV 357 La Stravaganza
Ponchielli – Concerto in F Major, for trumpet and orchestra
J. S. Bach – Double Concerto For Two Violins In D Minor BWV 1043
Borodin – Notturno from String Quartet

Interval

Corelli – Concerto Grosso Op.6 No.4 in D Major
Faure – Pavane Op. 50
Grieg – Holberg Suite Op.40

We are incredibly fortunate to get a large group of such fabulous players, who come from all over Europe and are based in Germany. Their leader, Leonid Tritus, is a world-renowned violinist with strong contacts in Russia, so for one afternoon Arran can feel itself to be part of the great European inheritance of music, with top players coming to Whiting Bay Hall.

Tickets at the door, for the Arran Music Society’s usual unbelievably low price of £8.00.
