Programme Note

With a programme drawn from Ancient China, through Europe to Latin American and modern day composers, classical guitarist Xuefei Yang will guide us on a journey to discover how music brings hope and joy, even in the coldest and darkest of seasons. Hosted in London's only candlelit theatre, the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.

Chinese classical guitarist Xuefei Yang sits next to her guitar on a plush maroon leather armchair. In the background there are lit candelabra in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.
