The 2006/7
season

Britten Sinfonia at Lunch

 

Britten Sinfonia at Lunch is a series of chamber concerts, designed to fit into the middle of your day. Following the success of last year's series in Cambridge, the BS at Lunch phenomenon comes to Norwich, Aldeburgh and Krakow as well as Cambridge in 2006-2007.

Each concert features a new work by a composer with links to the East of England, alongside complementary chamber works by composers as diverse as Purcell and Berio.

Each performance at West Road Concert Hall, Cambridge will be broadcast on BBC Radio 3, over a week in Spring 2007.

Britten Sinfonia at Lunch is funded by Escalator.
