Worksop Music Concert Series

Run by the College for music-lovers across the region, this concert series is a non-profit venture that provides beautiful and inspiring music at an accessible cost.

Attracting artists from all over the UK and beyond, these concerts also feature home-grown talent from the school’s pupils and staff.

This year there are two professional lunchtime concerts included in this brochure which sit alongside the pupils’ regular Friday lunchtime concert slot; some evening concert times vary too, so do check the start times carefully!

This year’s programme continues the strong spirit of education married with quality and diversity. There will be much to marvel at, from the improvisation skills of John Lenehan as he injects vibrancy and spontaneity into the silent films projected just above our 9’ concert grand piano, to the hilarious all-singing-all-dancing musical comedy cabaret show of Graffiti Classics.

We are proud to continue our association with the world-renowned a cappella group, VOCES8, who’ve been inspiring pupils and audiences alike with their inventive programming and immaculate ensemble since our journey started with them twelve years ago.

There really is something for everyone and we look forward to seeing you in our audience soon.

Lunchtime Recital: Concerto for Oboe and Violin - J. S. Bach

Zoe Glossop (Oboe)

Abigail Smith (Violin)

Timothy Uglow (Piano)

 

This short concert brings a much loved concerto to the heart of the College’s regular series of lunchtime concerts. Most of these feature pupils trialling their latest repertoire, but this concert features staff who wish to share their passion for Bach’s music.

 

It was at Cöthen that Bach wrote much of his instrumental music, including his violin concertos and his concerto for violin and oboe. The three movements of the Concerto in C minor, BWV 1060, two faster movements framing a central moving Adagio, allow intricate interplay between the two solo instruments.
