  • Mozart and Beethoven – 7pm at Dorchester Abbey

    Dorchester Abbey Oxfordshire

    The fourth concerto is Beethoven in his most jovial mood but also contains the drama we associate with this composer. On first listening it sounds like a concerto that a virtuoso could just dash off with the usual élan but on closer inspection it is far more difficult to bring off than one could imagine.
    The four notes that open Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony have a claim to being the most famous musical motto ever written. ‘Fate knocking at the door’, is how Beethoven is reported to have described the theme.

    £5.00 – £25.00

  • Bach ‘The Musical Offering’ – concert with lunch at New House

    New House Southmoor

    New House in Hanney, Oxfordshire plays host to a charming afternoon of intimate music, delicious food and wonderful company.
    Bach's Musical Offering grew out of the famous meeting with Frederick The Great in 1747 and ’the royal theme’ - such an amazing variety of short canons work so well for violin, flute and cello with harpsichord.
