Sunday - Afternoon At The Overture @ Nantwich Methodist Church

Join the South Cheshire Orchestra for an uplifting afternoon of live music, featuring stirring overtures, charming English melodies, and a rousing finale in honour of a historic occasion on Sunday 6 July.

Starting at 3pm, the programme opens with the delightful Arcadians Overture by Lionel Monckton and the warm, nostalgic Miniature Suite by Eric Coates, two gems of British light music.

The concert turns to the world of myth and theatre with Beethoven’s dynamic Overture to The Creatures of Prometheus, the dramatic Pique Dame Overture, and Friedrich von Flotow’s tuneful Martha Overture.

The concert is rounded off with two powerful statements: Haydn’s jubilant ‘London’ Symphony and Elgar’s Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1, performed as a tribute to the 80th anniversary of VE Day, a moment to reflect, remember, and celebrate the enduring spirit of that generation.

Whether you are a classical music enthusiast or simply looking for an inspiring afternoon out, this concert offers something for everyone.
