This concert in in memory of Skipton Music’s former president Brian Davies and is sponsored by our private patrons and donors

We will be continuing our monthly Listening Club this season where we meet (mostly online) before each concert and chat about a piece of music from the forthcoming gig – a bit like a book club. Last year in five of the six Listening Clubs the performers joined as well to chat with us and provide their personal perspective.

If you’re interested in joining the Listening Club, please click here or send an email to skiptonmusic2@gmail.com
