***See the 2024 Autumn Concert programme here***

Our autumn concert features performers from our alumni of music scholars and friends. This annual celebration of BritishSpanish music and performers will this year be held in the beautiful Holy Trinity, Sloane Square, ‘the cathedral of the arts and crafts movement’ in the words of poet laureate Sir John Betjeman.

This year we will be welcoming last year’s scholarship winner Laura Casas Cambra to the programme, alongside scholarship alumni Pablo Tejedor. Favourites from previous year’s programmes Julia Merino, Daisy Noton, Joan Furió Vivas and Mark Kinkaid will once again be joining us, the programme is completed with performances from Luis-Miguel Valles, Daniel Murphy and Lola Valles.

Concert director Nicole Crespo, also a member of our scholarship alumni, has put together a musical feast which features music from Falla, Granados, Lloyd-Webber and more.

Following the performance we will enjoy drinks courtesy of our sponsors Codorníu and Mahou, Spanish ham from COVAP, cheeses from Hamish Johnston and tortilla from Broken Eggs.
