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.

Song Recital: A Poet's Love

Harry Jacques (tenor) and Elizabeth French (piano) will perform a mélange of 19th and 20th Century Art songs from England and Germany.

Performing on the centenary marking the end of the Battle of Passchendaele, they aim to celebrate the Art of Song in a way that transcends the division of nations, languages and politics, by exploring mankind's incessant dealings in love, loss, hope and fear.

The programme will include music by Schumann, Ravel, Vaughan Williams, Britten and Richard Strauss.
