St John’s Chamber Orchestra’s Beethoven symphony cycle (2021-25) draws to a close with the epic Ninth Symphony, with its famous Ode to Joy finale.
The Orchestra is joined by the Tamesis Chamber Choir (conductor: Louise Rapple Moore) and an outstanding quartet of soloists.
The programme also includes the earlier Choral Fantasia, with Mengyang Pan returning to Norden Farm to play the brilliant solo piano part.
Norden Farm Centre for the Arts is fully accessible, and has free car parking. The Cafe Bar is available for food and drinks before the show (meal & ticket deals often available), and the bar is also open after the performance.
Under 18s are free (though there is a limit on the number of free tickets for this special evening).
