(PLEASE NOTE THERE IS NO APRIL CONCERT IN THE ABBEY BECAUSE OF EASTER)
Trio Paradis (Jacquelyn Bevan - piano, Ruth O’Shea - violin & Linda Stocks - cello) play a Café Concert at Malmesbury Abbey on the first Tuesday afternoon of each month at 2pm: a 45-minute concert of mostly classical music presented by the performers, often with the addition of a poem or two read by Jackie Tong. Refreshments are available in the abbey café before and after the concert.
Our March concert, in celebration of International Women’s Day, consists of music by women composers, featuring Alice Verne-Bredt: Phantasie Trio, the sublime slow movement of Cécile Chaminade’s Trio no2, and Rosalind Ellicott’s Trio in D minor, alongside music by two ‘locals’: a scherzo by Bath composer Kate Loder and a concerto movement by Dora Bright who for many years lived at Babington House.
Concerts last c45m and entrance is by donation, with a retiring collection. An RSVP via our website is much appreciated but not essential. Trio Paradis Cafe Concerts are 'pay-what-you-feel' via a retiring collection, to keep live music affordable for everyone. More information at www.trioparadis.com.
