TODAY: Chris Addison (The Thick of It, Mock the Week) joins Music in the Round to bring his infectious enthusiasm for classical music to Wiltshire Music Centre. Telling the story of Europe from the courts of 17th century Italy, through the political and social revolutions of 18th and 19th century Europe, to the weird and wonderful sounds conjured by today’s contemporary composers, Chris takes us on a journey through the rich, vibrant – and sometimes bizarre – history of classical chamber music. Discover how a bassoonist beat up Bach, Mozart’s passion for the newly-invented clarinet (and for crude poetry), Beethoven’s embattled relationship with his failing hearing and the Emperor of France, and how Schoenberg tore up the musical rule book in a continent ravaged by war. Featuring live performances from some of the UK’s finest musicians and the inimitable curiosity and wit of Chris Addison’s storytelling, this will be an evening of insight, laughter and spine-tingling music. 🎫CHRIS ADDISON’S INCOMPLETE GUIDE TO CHAMBER MUSIC Chris Addison & Friends 🗓️ Sat 14 February, 7.30pm 📍 Wiltshire Music Centre, Bradford on Avon See comments for details and booking link. #thisischambermusic #ClassicalMusic #ChrisAddison #comedy #wiltshiremusiccentre #bradford #bradfordmusic #BradfordEvents

TODAY: A brand-new storybook concert, based on the modern classic book series by Benji Davies. The Storm Whale tells the story of a child, and a whale washed up on the beach, and friendships that will change their lives forever and echo down the generations. These heart-warming tales of friendship, love and courage are brought to life through music specially written to accompany the book by our Children’s Composer-in-Residence, Paul Rissmann. Perfect for 3 to 7 year-olds and their families, this illustrated and narrated storybook concert is brought to Wiltshire Music Centre with Music in the Round, the producers of previous popular family concerts Izzy Gimzo, Giddy Goat and Sir Scallywag. It is a wonderful introduction to a live concert experience, brimming with wonderful music, memorable songs, images from the book and plenty of chances to join in. “The Storm Whale tells a simple but powerful story about loneliness and the love between a parent and child… The world may be as big and lonely and incomprehensible as the ocean, but still it’s possible to find tremendous, heart-stopping tenderness.” The New York Times on the book 🎫FAMILY CONCERT: THE STORM WHALE 🗓️ Sat 14 February, 2pm 📍 Wiltshire Music Centre, Bradford on Avon See comments for details and booking link. #thisischambermusic #ClassicalMusic #stormwhale #storybook #childrensbooks #benjidavies #wiltshiremusiccentre #bradford #bradfordmusic #BradfordEvents
