Saturday 30 October @ 7:30 – Gala Festival Concert. Elgar’s Enigma Variations

There will surely be electricity in the air as Kenneth Woods and the ESO perform Elgar’s beloved Enigma Variations, a timeless celebration of friendship and community, and the perfect work with which to welcome our friends and listeners back. It’s been over two years since the triumphant 100th Anniversary performance of the Elgar Cello Concerto for a packed Worcester Cathedral at the 2019 Elgar Festival. It’s time to let the music play again and to celebrate the life and music of Britain’s greatest composer.
