Telford’s tuneful event

Telford Orchestra’s Summer Concert is taking place on Saturday 14 July. The concert features three of well-known known orchestral works, plus the first complete performance of the Wrekin Suite by local composer Rory Freckleton. Other works include Greig’s Peer Gynt Suite No 1, Beethoven’s Romance for Violin and Orchestra with soloist Laura Brownsell and Mozart’s Symphony No 40 in G minor.

The Wrekin Suite includes movements depicting Telford as the birthplace of industry, the Mighty Wrekin, and the River Severn and Ironbridge and has particular significance in this 50th anniversary year of the founding of Telford.
The concert is at 7.30pm at St Michael’s Church Madeley TF7 5BN; tickets are £10 (students are free) and are available on the door. Visit telfordorchestra.org.uk for details.
