An orchestra is closing its 2018/19 season with a celebration of British music.

The de Havilland Philharmonic will perform a concert of British Light Music at the University of Hertfordshire’s Western Auditorium on Sunday, June 23. This type of music has its origins in the theatrical and seaside orchestras of the 19th and early 20th centuries, perfect for the orchestra’s midsummer season finale.

The concert will include a wide selection of favourites from this era with music by Eric Coates, Edward German and Ronald Binge.

Weston Auditorium, de Havilland Campus, University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, Sunday, June 23, 7.30pm. Details: 01707 281127 uharts.co.uk
