Southern Pro Musica Conductor: Jonathan Willcocks

An Entertainment by Candlelight Stravinsky - The Soldier's Tale Walton – Façade

F ollowing the great popularity of its 'sell-out' Candlelight concerts in St Peter's in pre-vious years, Southern Pro Musica returns with two colourful and entertaining works

for narrators (musician/actors William Godfree and Lisa Walker) and chamber orchestra – conducted by Jonathan Willcocks. Stravinsky’s The Soldier’s Tale was premièred in 1918 and tells the story of a soldier who trades his violin to the devil in return for unlimited economic gain – with unforeseen re-sult and strong moral conclusion. Walton – Façade also sprang into life shortly after the 1st World War, brilliantly colourful music from the young Walton surrounding Edith Sit-well’s eccentric poems. Tickets: £18 (£5 for 18 and under) available from the Petersfield Visitor Centre, Petersfield Library (01730-268829)e-mail: [email protected] website: www.southernpromusica.org Wine Bar
