The Esterhazy Singers will be combining with period instrument ensemble The Little Baroque Company to present Haydn’s The Seasons at this exciting venue with outstanding young soloists Mary Bevan (soprano), Greg Tassell (tenor) and Marcus Farnsworth (baritone).
The concert is a rare opportunity to hear a performance in English of Haydn’s last oratorio, a musical journey beginning in spring with an idyllic pastoral scene, moving on to a dramatic summer storm, a joyous drinking song at harvest time and the thrill of the hunt in the autumn, ending in the chill of winter as the traveller contemplates the mortality of man.
Please note: Tickets are only available from St Martin-in-the-Fields
