Britten Sinfonia Surround Sound Playlist

like a radio mix or eclectic playlist, but performed live and all around you by over 100 musicians, with orchestral drama, solo virtuosity and heartbursting moments of choral beauty.

From music you’ll know and love, to add to-playlist new favourites, Surround Sound Playlist presents pieces like Handel’s Zadok the Priest, Prokofiev’s Dance of the Knights, Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Man and Allegri’s Miserere, alongside music by Bartók, Morten Lauridsen, Ennio Morricone, Ravel, Caroline Shaw and Tavener.

Performers:
Britten Sinfonia
Tenebrae with Nigel Short (conductor)
Will Pound harmonica / melodeon
Cambridge Philharmonic Chorus
Coleridge Community College musicians

Your Experience

We think the ideal way to experience this event is to relax on the floor in the Immersive Zone. Bring a mat and a cushion to make yourself comfortable - please be aware that chairs (collapsible, foldable or otherwise) are not permitted.

Or if being on the floor is not possible for you, there will be both reservable and unreserved chairs.
Because performances come from multiple stages in the space, there’s no one best place to be.
Bring the family - the atmosphere is relaxed!
