Imagine opening the doors of the ancient and beautiful Parish church in Henfield and seeing before you an astonishing number of tall and graceful harps; no, the angels will not have descended to the earth!
The instruments will belong to an exciting group of up to eight top harpists from across Sussex. They have recently formed an unusual musical ensemble - Glissando - with an eclectic repertoire, ranging from the energetic to the ethereal. The concert takes place on Saturday 29 April at 7.30pm
The harpists have all come from differing walks of life and like them, their programme choices are diverse, from well- known folk tunes and popular classics alongside pieces by prominent composers for the harp. You will hear arrangements from Mozart’s Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, Tango by Salzedo and Spanish dance music arranged by Granados, along with other items which must remain an undisclosed pleasure until you come to the concert! Henfield is truly fortunate to have the chance to see and hear such a rare company of musicians. This is an occasion not to be missed!
Please help us to continue to care for this remarkable church and treat yourselves into the bargain, by coming to this fascinating concert. The tickets cost £15 including refreshments and can be obtained from Village Care, Henfield and from the ticket line on 01273 492294 from the beginning of April or on the door on the evening. This will be a popular event we’re sure, so make certain of your seat as soon as you can. We look forward to seeing you there!
