Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra In Bovey

Bovey Paradiso in partnership with Villages In Action is proud to bring the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra to Bovey Tracey!
1st May 2025 19:30
Join 12 string players from the BSO in a colourful programme including lullabies, a starburst, film music and folk melodies. The concert will be presented by the musicians to reveal connections between 20th and 21st century music and composers from the UK, Hungary, the USA and Ukraine, for an audience of all ages.
Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra’s On Your Doorstep concerts bring specially designed mid-scale chamber ensembles to venues and audiences across the South West, in engaging programmes for families, new audiences and seasoned concert-goers alike – an entertaining blend of music ranging from classical treats to more up-to-date favourites.
To make the occasion even more special why not add a touch of sparkle to your evening with a Prosecco and Canape reception before the performance? The drinks reception will be open for pre-paid reception ticket holders only at 6.30pm. Non alcoholic alternative drinks will also be available.
