Add to my Calendar 10-10-2020 15:00 10-10-2020 17:00 36 Emma Halnan and Heather Wrighton We are delighted to announce that the English Music Festival is playing its part in restarting music-making in the UK and that our Autumn Festival will be going ahead this year. We have been very aware of the plight of musicians in this country, so many of whom have lost so much work and, therefore, income since concerts stopped in March, and we have been deeply concerned about the future of concerts and live music in the wake of the lockdown. We are therefore doing what we can to rectify matters by arranging events, starting with an Autumn Festival at St Mary’s Church in Horsham, Sussex. Emma Halnan has performed at major venues worldwide. She has performed live on BBC Radio 3’s “In Tune” on multiple occasions, as well as being broadcast on BBC Radio 2’s “Friday Night is Music Night” as soloist with the BBC Concert Orchestra. She works regularly with harpist Heather Wrighton and together they have appeared at venues including Wigmore Hall and St. James’s Piccadilly as well as at the Norfolk & Norwich Festival. Their recital for the Autumn EMF includes Vaughan Williams’s well-loved “Fantasia on Greensleeves” alongside a number of scintillatingly colourful works by contemporary composers.
