The Lark Ascending

I HOLST Phantasy String Quartet (10’)

BRITTEN Phantasy Quartet Op.2 (13’)
VAUGHAN WILLIAMS (arr. Gerigk) The Lark Ascending (15’)

The violin soars melodiously above the rest of the quartet in the gorgeous, pared-back arrangement of Vaughan Williams’s most popular work The Lark Ascending, which concludes this ‘Relaxed’ concert of music featuring English music for oboe and strings.

Doors will be left open, lights raised, a break-out space provided, and there will be less emphasis on the audience being quiet during the performance. People with an Autism Spectrum, sensory or communication disorder or learning disability, those with age-related impairments and parents/carers with babies are all especially welcome.
