Programme Note
Ludlow English Song Weekend is back with a full programme of more than ten events and live concerts 8, 9 & 10 April 2022. We are delighted to be back to our usual format with main concerts in the splendour of the cathedral like St Laurence's Church and other events in the nearby and newly refurbished Ludlow Assembly Rooms.
This is one in a series of main recitals over the three days - the full programme can be seen here on classicalevents.co.uk or on our website Ludlow English Song Weekend. Some events are available only to our Festival Pass holders and are not listed for separate ticket sales.
Festival passes are on sale at the moment. Individual concert tickets will go on sale from February ONLY if there are seats left. To allow for management of the audience, regardless of any restrictions, there will be no 'at the door' sales. Tickets are refundable under the conditions on our website.
Tickets to this opening recital also give access to 'Lute Songs by Candelight' which will start at 9.30pm after an interval. Please see our website for details of the programme for this later recital.
