Risingholme Orchestra presents “From Dull to Great Snoring: A Musical Tour of the British Isles” on Sunday 10th November 2024, 2.00 p.m. to 4.00 p.m. at The Piano, 156 Armagh Street, Christchurch
Pricing: Adult $25.00 | Children $5.00
Risingholme Orchestra invites you to their concert centred on music by British composers, and which draws its inspiration from some of the realm’s notable events, characters and locales.
The programme extends from Scotland (the traditional “Skye Boat Song” and Hamish MacCunn’s The Land of the Mountain and the Flood), to the south of England with Malcolm Arnold’s Four Cornish Dances. The concert also includes works by Handel, Arthur Sullivan, The Beatles, and the premiere of English Idyll by visiting British composer Christopher Mortlock from Essex, near Steeple Bumpstead.
We are also joined by local vocalist Kate Taylor.
