Sunday 9 September 2018 at 3pm at Hellens, Much Marcle, nr Ledbury HR8 2LY

Alvor Duo

Sarah Newbold (flute) and Katherine Thomas (harp)





We are very pleased to announce the return to Hellens of these two superb artists, whose playing has delighted audiences at this wonderful venue in the past as members of different ensembles and who, this time, return as a duo partnership. The exquisite clarity of the flute set against the warm, resonant tones of the harp is a truly magical combination. Add to this the beautiful music from the Baroque to the present day, the glorious setting of Hellens on a late summer afternoon and complimentary strawberries & cream and this is surely an event not to be missed.
