A fascinating juxtaposition of youthful
energy and vibrancy and an unknowing
final musical statement, Northern
Sinfonia members perform music from
the student Britten and the experienced
Britten. Colin Matthews, who was and
is a great supporter of Britten and his
music, features with his Oboe Quartet
written for Nottingham University

Plateaus’ was created just this year as
part of his studies at Newcastle
University. Tickets: £16
