Corelli Ensemble Concerts 2022

The Corelli Ensemble is delighted to welcome audiences to a wonderful series of Sunday afternoon concerts in Seaford Baptist Church. The four concerts feature world-class soloists: soprano Dame Felicity Lott, harpist Alex Rider, horn player Dave Lee, and talented young violinist, Richart Van Zyl.

Many of our audience members will remember a very beautiful piece we performed before Lockdown called ‘Rosa Mundi’ by Sussex-based composer, Paul Lewis. We had so much enthusiastic feedback about this piece that we have included a work by Paul Lewis in each programme. We hope you enjoy discovering some more of Paul’s gorgeous music for string orchestra over the next few months.
