Gloucestershire Symphony Orchestra Spring Celebration Concert

Saturday 5 April, 7pm - 9pm

A life in music – celebrating the life and legacy of Quentin Haslam.

We will be remembering bassoonist Quentin Haslam, a much-loved member of GSO for over 30 years. Quentin enriched our orchestral community with his formidable talent, kindness, and breadth of musical knowledge. A familiar figure on the Gloucestershire professional and amateur music scene, many of Quentin’s favourite pieces will be performed by members of GSO, colleagues, friends and invited guest players, reflecting Quentin’s life, artistry and love of music.

Soirées musicales – Benjamin Britten/Gioachino Rossini

Four Last Songs – Richard Strauss

Soprano: Ellie Neate

Five Variants of Dives and Lazarus – Ralph Vaughn Williams

Also featuring various bassoon pieces by Haydn and Schubert.
