World-leading Harpist Visits Dartford

Catrin Finch is coming to town on April 2nd. --- it's a special occasion for the Orchard Theatre and for lovers of fine music, for this young lady manages to combine the rare talents of charm, beauty, passion, musicality and virtuosity. She plays the harp, or rather has succeeded in making the harp do just about everything bar stand up and dance.

She is coming with the London Mozart Players, one of the finest chamber orchestras anywhere, for a concert including works by Haydn, Mozart and Rossini. Catrin will play the Mozart Piano Concerto No. 12 in an arrangement for the harp, and you will be (to use a technical term) gobsmacked at the sound.

David Juritz will be leading the orchestra. He is a wonderful violinist whose recording of the Vivaldi Four Seasons (with the London Mozart Players) is recognised as one of the finest interpretations on modern instruments.

It promises to be a great evening's music with top flight performers. Call the Box Office on 01322 220000. The concert starts at 7.30pm.
