Upcoming concerts

I always seem to forget to tell people about my upcoming concerts. So to rectify this I thought I would post the details...

Hertfordshire Chamber Orchestra:
Saturday 13th January 7.30pm
Church of St Peter and St Paul, Tring, Hertfordshire

Sunday 14th January 7.30pm

Haydn Symphony no 101 ‘The Clock’
Beethoven Romance for violin and orchestra Op 50
Rossini Overture to ‘Il Signor Bruschino’

The soloist and director is Paul Barritt, who has led the English Chamber Orchestra and Halle Orchestra (i.e. he really is rather good, yet charmingly self-effacing).
