Programme Note
Our newest Artist in Association Matthew Sharp returns to Stockport Town Hall to perform the elegiac masterpiece that is Elgar’s Cello Concerto. Matthew is internationally recognised as both a compelling classical artist and a fearless pioneer, who can just as easily turn his hand to remarkable cello-playing as he can to mesmerising audiences with his vibrant baritone. The concert is the public conclusion of a programme of workshops and concerts in Stockport schools, led and directed by Matthew in a unique linking of education and concert work.
