Experience breathtaking music by some of classical music’s greatest composers, performed by some of the country’s finest classical musicians, all presented in stunning candlelight.

At the heart of the concert is Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, the most recorded work in classical music and a defining showpiece for solo violin. Each concerto depicts a different season, shaped by accompanying poems – possibly written by Vivaldi himself. Across the four concertos, Vivaldi transforms the natural world into vivid musical scenes, evoking birdsong and buzzing flies, harvest celebrations, drunken revellers, barking dogs, summer storms and winter ice.

Alongside this, Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending, composed on the eve of the First World War, offers a more reflective perspective. Inspired by George Meredith’s poem, it captures a pastoral world on the brink of change, its soaring violin line suggesting a lark gliding high above the mechanised world below, “lost on his aerial rings / In light, and then the fancy sings.”

Opening the programme we have Mozart’s Overture to The Marriage of Figaro, an opera drawn from Beaumarchais’ recently banned comedy, in which a philandering count attempts to seduce his servant’s fiancée, only to be outmanoeuvred by the servants and his own long-suffering wife.

Whether you’re already in the know or completely new to classical music, this is a programme to be enjoyed by all.

Programme to include
Mozart – Overture to The Marriage of Figaro
Vaughan Williams – The Lark Ascending
Mozart – Flute Quartet in D
Vivaldi – The Four Seasons

Artists
Charlie Lovell-Jones – Soloist

London Concertante celebrate Christmas through the elegance and brilliance of the Baroque era, with a selection of beautifully crafted festive masterpieces.

Opening the programme is the overture from Handel’s Messiah, whose opening section centres on the prophecy and birth of Christ, making it one of the defining sounds of the Christmas repertoire. Corelli’s Christmas Concerto, written “for the night of Christmas”, and Torelli’s Christmas Concerto both capture the spirit of Christmas night, with music that suggests the shepherds of the Nativity and the stillness of the scene.

Completing the programme is Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, a dazzling set of concertos that remains one of the most famous and vivid works in all classical music. Each concerto paints a different season in sound, drawing on accompanying poems — possibly written by Vivaldi himself — to bring the natural world vividly to life. Across the four concertos, Vivaldi conjures birdsong and buzzing flies, harvest celebrations, barking dogs, summer storms and winter ice.

Programme
Handel – Overture to Messiah
Corelli – Christmas Concerto
Torelli – Christmas Concerto
Bach – Violin Concerto in A minor
Vivaldi – The Four Seasons

Artists
Emmanuel Webb – Soloist

This programme celebrates the elegance, charm and sheer joy of the Viennese tradition with a dazzling selection of orchestral and vocal favourites.

At its heart is the music of Johann Strauss II, the “Waltz King”, whose works capture the wit, sparkle and irresistible energy of 19th-century Vienna. From the effervescent Die Fledermaus Overture to the playful Tritsch-Tratsch Polka, literally “chit-chat” or “gossip”, culminating in The Blue Danube, one of the most famous waltzes ever written: an unofficial anthem of Vienna and a piece that has enchanted audiences for generations, from grand ballrooms to the silver screen in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Alongside Strauss, the programme explores the many moods of the waltz, from Shostakovich’s jazz-infused Waltz No. 2 to the haunting beauty of Sibelius’s Valse triste. Tchaikovsky brings a touch of magic with the graceful Waltz from The Sleeping Beauty and the much-loved Nutcracker Suite, with some of the most recognisable music ever written — from the delicate sparkle of the “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” to the sweeping beauty of the “Waltz of the Flowers”.

The programme also shines a light on the golden age of operetta, with soprano favourites including Lehár’s Meine Lippen, sie küssen so heiß and Vilja, Suppé’s Hab’ ich nur deine Liebe from Boccaccio, and two sparkling moments from Die Fledermaus: Adele’s famous Laughing Song and the fiery Csárdás. Korngold’s Serenade from The Snowman adds a note of nostalgic warmth to this richly coloured programme.

Full of elegance, nostalgia and exhilarating musical colour, this is a concert to lift the spirits and delight audiences of all ages.
