The final concert of the Festival will include a wide range of music for string orchestra, framed by two major serenades: Tchaikovsky’s effervescent Serenade for Strings and Britten’s evocative work for solo tenor and horn.

The concert will be relayed to a giant screen in the garden of the Worsley Arms (back by popular demand following this innovation in the 2007 Festival), allowing a far greater audience to enjoy the concert.

Please note early start time

There will be a large marquee with T.V. relay, a bar and hog roast.
