Baroque concert in Sherborne Abbey next month

The South West Baroque Orchestra is giving a concert in Sherborne next month (I'll be in the audience this year - last year was a great experience being part of the orchestra and I look forward to seeing them again and hearing them from the "outside".)


Saturday 15th July, Sherborne Abbey. Evening Concert, 6.00 pm ‘Grand Concerti of the Baroque’. Handel The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba, Oboe Concerto by Heinichen soloist Zoë Cartlidge, Vivaldi Concerto for 2 Cellos with Jacqui Robertson-Wade & Stephen Brown, Telemann Concerto for 2 Violas with Poppy Holton & Richard Thompson Corelli Concerto Grosso Op 6 No 4 & Avison/Scarlatti Concerto No 5, Brescianello Chaconne, Boyce Symphony No 4. Tickets £15 (including interval refreshments; accompanied under 16s free) www.ticketsource.co.uk/south-west-baroque-orchestra or telephone box office on 0333 666 3366 or on the door


The SWBO has its own website - if you would be interested in playing with them why not use their contact form there? (Great directors and fellow players and interesting music.) Their monthly rehearsal venue and most of their concerts are in Devon but it is worth the trek from Dorset if you can drive.
