Evening Series
ENTENTE CORDIALE
These full-length evening concerts present a wonderful range of repertoire from classic favourites to lesser-known works and exciting new commissions.
In the first of our Evening Series concerts, the historic 1904 Entente Cordiale agreement between the British and French ended a long period of antagonism between these two great nations. That cross-border cooperation sent our Artistic Director on a quest to discover music from both sides of The Channel composed in that same year
