Programme Note
This event presents a programme of light classical music - small selection listed here - including work by Handel, Slaughter on Tenth Avenue by Richard Rodgers, Offenbach's Orpheus in the Underworld overture, and the ever-popular Pomp and Circumstance March No.1 by Edward Elgar, and more.
Ticket prices remain at just £5 and £7 to keep the concert accessible to all; the price includes a printed programme, which provides brief details about the music and composers; plus, there’ll be a version available for children aged 5–11 years.
Special guests are Darlington Clarinet Ensemble; the group plays pieces specifically written for a clarinet ensemble. Members also make their own arrangements of classical, jazz and popular pieces – and their library now has over 800 pieces of music. The ensemble consists of Eb clarinet, Bb clarinets playing in three or four parts, alto clarinet, basset horn, bass clarinet and contrabass clarinet.
Tickets now available to buy at the venue.
