Next Concert
Saturday July 6th 2013 at 7.30 pm
Colyer-Fergusson Hall, University of Kent, CT2 7NB
Our next concert features two masterly and ever-popular pieces from the Romantic concert repertoire in the Elgar Cello Concerto, one of the composer's last large scale compositions written in the aftermath of World War I, and Dvorak's New World Symphony, an invigorating work based on a tapestry of melodies derived from American folk tunes and enlivened by characteristic Czech rhythms. As our soloist for the Elgar we are privileged to bring to Canterbury the internationally acclaimed Australian cellist, Pei-Jee Ng. The programme is completed by Malcolm Arnold's Little Suite for Orchestra No.2 .. which, though short, is full of inventiveness and colour. Tickets are £10 for adults and £4 for students and children of school age. They are available on the door and from the Gulbenkian Box Office (01227 769075 )
