Free Afternoon Recital - Aquarelle

About

Our series of free Afternoon Recitals continues, we welcome the Aquarelle Trio, introducing Clare Crinson (Flute), Deborah Thorne (Cello) and Alison Gill (Piano).

While entry to our concerts is complimentary, we encourage contributions during the collection at the end of each performance to support both the talented artists and the Cathedral. Your generosity will help us continue to bring such enriching events to the community. We look forward to seeing you there!
