Midsummer Magic

What better way to spend an evening than listening to songs about life and love? From true love to a "roll in the hay", we'll be roving across genres, from traditional madrigals via their more recent jazzy counterparts to musical theatre. With music from George Shearing, the famous jazz pianist and composer; Irish composer Charles Villiers Stanford; John Rutter, the giant of choral music, to Richard Rodgers of Rodgers aod Hammerstein fame. The lyrics come from similarly varied sources, with a good dose of Shakespeare, a little Mary Coleridge, and a little Victor Hugo (Les Miserables, of course). Who will have the final word on live? Shakespeare or Abba? You decide.

Don't miss out on this exciting evening. Join the choir of Watford Philharmonic at Bushey Arena for this fabulous celebration of music in the summertime.
