The Choral Scholars of St Martin-in-the-Fields are joined by renowned violinist and member of the Piatti Quartet, Michael Trainor, to bring you an atmospheric concert of choral and violin music in the Tunnel Shaft of the Brunel Museum.
Conducted by St Martin’s Assistant Director of Music, Olivia Tait, the programme will include works by Stanford, Bach and Prokofiev, as well as Vaughan Williams’ famous ‘Lark Ascending’.
