Manchester Camerata is hosting a series of lunchtime concerts at their home, The Monastery in Gorton, supported by their good friends at Classic FM. These intimate performances allow our community to experience incredible music in a relaxed, inspiring, and historic setting. At just one hour, it’s the perfect opportunity to step away from your day to enjoy something memorable.
This upcoming concert features Appalachian Spring, a masterpiece by Aaron Copland, originally composed as a ballet score. The piece tells the story of a young pioneer husband and his bride beginning a life together on the American frontier. It will be brought to life by Manchester Camerata's musicians and enhanced by their collaboration with Company Chameleon, one of Manchester’s leading dance companies.
Known for their powerful and original dance theatre, Company Chameleon will interpret the music through dance, fusing sound and movement for this uplifting piece.
This concert will also feature music by the Camerata 360° Ruth Sutton Fellows.
When?
1.30-2.30pm, Wed, 18th June, 2025.
