Lunchtime concert: 20th Century Sax and winds

Join us for a lunchtime treat of favourites and hidden gems for sax, flute and clarinet through the C20th Louisa Kataria brings her virtuoso versatility to St Margaret's - playing alto and soprano sax, flute and clarinet - in a vivid selection of music, accompanied by pianist Joseph Cummings. Vivacious dance rhythms scintillate through this impressive array of instruments and music, including Milhaud’s lively 'Scaramouche', Piazzolla’s beguiling 'Histoire du Tango', and the uniquely American sound of Gershwin’s clarinet works.
