About Finzi and Copland at SJE Arts

Finzi Eclogue

Peter Warlock An old song

Maki Sekiya piano

Orchestra of St John’s

See in the summer with Copland’s glorious Appalachian Spring! Maki Sekiya will join the orchestra to perform Finzi’s sunny Eclogue and Florence Price’s too often overlooked piano work, Adoration. Plus Peter Warlock ‘An old song’.

This is one of a series of socially distanced chamber concerts at SJE Arts.

To accommodate social distancing rules, they are offering a short concert of about 1 hour with no interval, starting at 6.00pm.

The event will follow strict procedures. Seating will be preallocated by household.
