Overview
Programme
The Aspidistra Drawing Room Orchestra returns to Lauderdale House with a new selection of unjustly neglected music.
The Aspidistra Drawing Room Orchestra, consisting of a string quartet, piano, flute and oboe recreates the glamour of the Palm Court Orchestras that gave pleasure and hope to previous generations in difficult times. The programme includes many memorable melodies and charming songs that you are unlikely to hear performed anywhere else. For youngsters, it can be a perfect introduction to classical music while for classical music connoisseurs, the quality and inventiveness of this music often comes as a total surprise.
To give you an idea of the sort of a music on the programme, have a look at this little film of their trip to Lundy.
