Covid is officially over and the mood is soaring. It is time for Spring at Breinton with a special event in celebration of Her Majesty the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Our first outdoor event for 2022 will feature the freshest talent in chamber music, Connaught Brass. Vibrant, spirited, bold and already set to perform at London’s Wigmore Hall, they are on the threshold of a major international career. Let us hear their hand-picked repertoire, including works by Elgar, Rimsky-Korsakov and other British composers, and feel their ambition to bring brass chamber music to the forefront of modern classical music. And support local Woking talent, Chris Brewster on trombone on his return to Breinton as a professional musician.
To support the main act, we are delighted to present The Octavian Singers; this Woking-based community choir was established in 1987 and will entertain us with British-themed madrigals and light jazz.
Joyful voices and the majestic combination of trumpets, trombone, horn and tuba on a May afternoon; we look forward to welcoming everyone back to enjoy the music at Breinton.
