Artsreach and the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra resume their ever-popular collaboration of recitals in rural communities with a series of ‘BSO On Your Doorstep’ concerts this autumn, featuring performances by a BSO Brass Octet, a Trio of Flute, Harp & Cello.

‘BSO On Your Doorstep’, an initiative made possible thanks to support from the Weston Culture Fund, has seen a selection of BSO musicians playing in brand new ensembles as this internationally renowned orchestra returns to the road. A partnership with Artsreach has allowed the orchestra to reconnect with audiences across Dorset and bring live music directly to local rural communities.
As part of the Artsreach autumn season, a special BSO ensemble of 14 players invites you to join them for a celebration of the sea at The Exchange in Sturminster Newton.
From the Hebrides to Padstow features players from across the orchestra performing an evening of specially arranged music from Handel’s Water Music and Mendelsohn’s Fingal’s Cave to Sea Shanties, Beatles classics, Malcolm Arnold and even an instrumental arrangement of Adele’s Rolling in the Deep.
Artsreach director Kerry Bartlett said: “We’re always so thrilled to give our rural communities the opportunity to both host and hear these incredible musicians performing live, and we are especially excited to be able to present a larger ensemble with this wonderful nautical recital.”

Hear the BSO From the Hebrides to Padstow at Sturminster Newton Exchange on Thursday, October 27, at 7:30pm.
