Sounds for a Summer Evening

Synopsis

In the evenings when our thoughts turn to the end of day, the fuss and flurry of life dissolve to the sound of music. The sound of three flutes and a bassoon float over the Grassfield in the Summer Nights, written by our Principal Flute Jin Ta, while the beguiling combination of flute, viola and harp by way of Debussy promises enchantment and contemplation. Finally, be recharged by the unmistakable wit and vigour of Beethoven.

FORMAT: This will be a live concert held at the Victoria Concert Hall.
