Workshop day with another luminous masterpiece

Once more, Nonesuch opened its new season with a hugely enjoyable Workshop Day. This year we explored Josef Suk’s Serenade for Strings - a piece mingling joy and melancholy with beautiful lyrical melodies.

We were hosted this year by the St Mary-le-Savoy with St George German Lutheran Church - a handsome modern church within the International Lutheran Student Centre near Kings Cross. We welcomed a number of guests who swelled the orchestra’s ranks in all sections, and after some hours of study and rehearsal we rounded off the day with a complete performance. Keep an eye on our Events page - we hope to perform this superb work at a public concert during the coming year.

We are extremely grateful to Edith, Mauricio, and Sebastian - and Sebastian’s delightful Dachshund - for making us so welcome at the German Lutheran Church for our Workshop Day. Thank you!
