Programme Note
Following the great success of last year’s first rendition of the song festival, Anthology of Song again has lots of musical delight in store. Join us in celebrating a musical extravaganza performed by local—and very accomplished—professional singers and pianists! In two concerts with different programmes, the performers will highlight the musical life of Great Cities of Europe inviting the audience on a journey to discover the lives and friendship of composers of the 19th and early 20th Century.
Concert One Friday, 4 November, 7:30 pm
(followed by wine and cheese reception)
Concert Two Saturday, 5 November, 7:30 pm
