Nineteenth Season 2007-2008

The Nineteenth season of concerts has provided some wonderful musical moments and I am pleased to report that attendances have been excellent and our audiences as keen as ever to come to Vinehall for chamber music of the highest quality.

We started the season with the London Concertante, who played works by Mendelssohn, Beethoven and Mozart, including his well-known Clarinet Concerto. It was lovely to have a full stage of performers and was an ideal concert for both children and adults.

Eighteenth Season 2006-2007

The Eighteenth season of concerts has provided some wonderful musical moments and I am pleased to report that attendances have been excellent and our audiences as keen as ever to come to Vinehall for chamber music of the highest quality.

We started the season with Tim Hugh and Friends, who played works by Strauss, Schoenberg and Schubert. Their performance of the Schubert String Quintet was one of the most moving and memorable performances I can remember at Vinehall – an enormous testimony to the skill and understanding of the players.

Seventeenth Season 2005-2006

The Seventeenth season of concerts has provided some wonderful musical moments and I am pleased to report that attendances have been excellent and our audiences as keen as ever to come to Vinehall for chamber music of the highest quality.

We started the season with London Concertante, who played works by Arensky,Debussy and Mozart. It is always good to get a larger group of musicians performing at Vinehall, and over twenty players along with the harpist Lucy Wakeford and the flautist Julian Sperry delighted the audience with their performance of Mozart's Concerto for Flute and Harp. They finished with a lively account of Mozart's 40th Symphony.

Sixteenth Season 2004-2005

The Sixteenth season of concerts started, as usual, much earlier in the preceding November of 2003 when the bookings were made.

It always seems such a long time ahead to be planning but it is necessary to secure the best musicians. The August before the start of the season is always busy, as I await (with a degree of trepidation) the booking forms, as I never know whether demand will be high or low. Fortunately, bookings were strong and some concerts sold out very quickly.
