Experience something special this weekend.

Exclusively on this Saturday evening we have a concert to remember, featuring key works from Elgar, Vivaldi and master-of-tango Piazzolla.

The venue is glorious Southwark Cathedral with a romantic candlelight setting to match its gothic interior.

The UK's leading chamber orchestra approaching its 25th anniversary season, London Concertante has put together a fabulous programme of music for the evening.

Tonight, they perform Spring and Summer from Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, along with complimentary work by Elgar and Piazzolla. The name of Piazzolla will be music to the ears to those who attended our last concert in May. His tango, Oblivion, performed that evening was one of the most popular pieces of the evening.

Having attended concerts here over the last 2 years, we are always grateful for an opportunity to return.

Tonight's concert will be another remarkable occasion.

Programme and Seating

• Elgar - Serenade for Strings

• Barber - Adagio

• Holst - St. Paul’s Suite

• Vivaldi - “Spring” & “Summer” from the Four Seasons

• Piazzolla - “Spring” & “Summer” from the Four Seasons of Buenos Aires

The Seranade for Strings is the earliest work by Elgar to have become well known and preceded his ‘Enigma’ Variations by six years. Late in life Elgar singled the Serenade out as his favourite work. It is utterly characteristic. Along with The Planets, Holst's St Paul's Suite is one of the best works for which he is remembered. Meanwhile, Vivaldi's The Four Seasons is another highly popular work in this eclectic and well chosen programme.
