Welcome!

We’re delighted to welcome you to the today’s concert from Strings Incognito!

We invite you to sit back, relax, and enjoy some tea and cake in an informal atmosphere – while we entertain you with a selection of well-known music in celebration of Calne Town Hall’s 130th birthday.

We love it when our audiences join in! Children (and adults!) are encouraged to move around, sing along, dance, and enjoy the music. Please also feel free to get drinks and cakes at any time during the concert.
