The evening

A concert of fairytales and wonder from harpists Katherine Thomas and Alex Rider.

What could be more magical than the sound of a harp? Two harps, of course, and today CBSO Principal Harpist Katherine Thomas is joined by her inspirational colleague Alex Rider to weave sonic enchantment. There’ll be mysterious tales from Ravel, shimmering nocturnes, and the ravishing musical images of Claude Debussy – music to spark the imagination and soothe the soul.
