Violinist Zoë Beyers curates a mixtape concert of music that straddles continents and centuries – American melodies combined with classical favourites, from Purcell to Caroline Shaw, Barber to Bartók. Take a deep breath and immerse yourself in the gorgeous sounds of strings.

In the second of their ‘American & Canadian Sounds’ concerts, the London Chamber Music Society present this concert featuring some highlights of twentieth-century American music. Samuel Barber’s famous Adagio for strings is followed by the tone poem ‘Dismal Swamp’ by William Grant Still. Gershwin’s popular Rhapsody in Blue is performed in a striking arrangement for chamber orchestra before we have two pieces by Aaron Copland; the haunting sounds of ‘Quiet City’ and the original chamber orchestra version of his famous ballet suite ‘Appalachian Spring’ from the 1940s.

Join English Symphony Orchestra for an American Rhapsody featuring Gershwin’s timeless Rhapsody in Blue and Copland’s Appalachian Spring.
