Welcome to Music in Quiet Places

Organising these five concerts in the run up to Oundle International Festival in July is always exciting. Virtuoso musicians, inspiring churches, lovely stone villages and the promise of early summer… it’s a magical combination.

This year you can hear some sublime music for string quartet played by an outstanding young ensemble, a thrilling percussion duo who’ve twice taken the Edinburgh Fringe by storm, an eight-piece klezmer band playing the haunting music of Eastern Europe, some lovely 16th century song and dance music and a captivating close harmony male voice choir.

Our thanks as always go to the churches for hosting the concerts and for offering everyone a warm welcome.

Refreshments will usually be available during the intervals, provided by members of the church and with the income going to church funds.

Car parking may be found near to the church, but could be on unlit streets.

Toilet facilities are available at Nassington and King’s Cliffe churches.
Remember that pews are often hard – please do bring a cushion if you wish.

Disabled concert-goers are welcome at all our concerts. For assistance with access or for more information about the churches please telephone 01780 470297.

Music in Quiet Places is grateful to Loch Fyne Restaurant, Elton, for their continuing support of the series in the form of Gift Vouchers to be awarded as raffle prizes at each concert.

MIQP reserves the right to make any changes to the programme that may prove necessary.
