The programme includes new settings of Hampshire folk songs (performed by local school choirs and the LMP), a British premiere of Richard Brown’s delightful Pageant of the Sea (performed by the LMP and PGS Musicians), a world premiere of a new arrangement of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s Four African Folk Songs for violin and orchestra, the ever-popular Capriol Suite by Warlock, a brand new work for violin and orchestra by 6th Form composer Sam Hemingway, and Henry Wood’s rousing Fantasia on British Sea Shanties.
