Winchester gets its very own chamber music festival with this weekend of top-class concerts in the intimate setting of the city’s historic Milner Hall.

 

Performed by the London Bridge Ensemble, one of Britain’s most exciting and brilliant chamber groups, the Festival features a sparkling programme of chamber music and song, as well as a masterclass featuring local music groups.

 

Kate says: “ It’s a great pleasure to bring the London Bridge Ensemble to my home town for this weekend of music making, and to invite local schools to take part in our public masterclass.

 

“ The Ensemble’s name represents our passion for bringing together different musical genres and styles, for example chamber music and song, as we are doing in the Festival. It’s also a reflection of our admiration for the music of Frank Bridge, some of whose music we are featuring in our programme.”
