What will you hear?
The structure of this programme is typical of many programmes until the Second World War. Programmes were not as we are used to, two or three complete major works but were a mixture of music, a movement from a symphony by someone, then another by someone else, perhaps some operatic arias, a bit of Bach, part of a concerto or all of it broken up by other compositions.
A mixed programme, but no less demanding for the musicians. Indeed, I think you will be happily surprised by the degree of virtuosity required of them.

What’s in store?
Le Meridian Bristol was rated recently as the 11th greatest hotel in Europe. The list of past celebrity guests is impressive enough. Though I have never slept there, I imagine the beds are comfortable, the bathrooms have running water and the linen is clean. To be chef at the Bristol guarantees fame and, for all I know, fortune. What is certain is that you, the discerning guest, as the wine flows, will have a dinner to remember.
