Patrons' Evening

Wednesday 23rd June, 7.30pm at St Michael's Centre, Elmwood Road, Chiswick

Invitation only, for Members, Benefactors, Patrons and Supporters of the Festival.

Arcadia was formed in 2001 and is comprised of players from the Royal Academy of Music and the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.  They have given recitals in venues throughout London and surrounding areas including Sopwell House and Brocket Hall.  Last year, the quintet represented the Guildhall Wind Department in a performance at the Wigmore Hall and reached the final of the Ivan Sutton Chamber Music Prize at Guildhall.  They have recently been involved in Performances and Education Workshops within the children’s wards at the Middlesex Hospital.  Arcadia regularly perform at City Functions in London as well as Weddings, Concerts and Charity Events, including the Listeners Club for the Visually Impaired.  As a quintet, Arcadia have great aspirations to perform professionally together in the near future.
