This gives young professional performers a platform to explore repertoire, and their listeners an opportunity to hear some rarely performed and unusual works that their audience might not be familiar with, as well as some firm favourites. Our MUSICIANS have studied to post-graduate level or higher at music colleges in the UK and abroad and are destined to be heard all over the world. This season we have a familiar venue in Devon at LOWER PULWORTHY, We return to the BRIDPORT ARTS CENTRE, and the ILMINSTER ARTS CENTRE.
