CONCERTS IN THE WEST
CONCERTS SERIES 2022
Although it is holiday time for many we are busy getting ready for the autumn part of our concert season. We are looking forward to welcoming you back to our little venues and to some wonderful music played by extraordinary musicians.
Our ONLINE BOOKING site is relaunched. It has been completely rebuilt on a different platform and we hope that you will find it easier to use. There are links on each tour page as well as above. Please follow this link on How to Book.
There are other ways of buying tickets and these are shown on the Booking pages (please see the menu in the top right of the screen). Please note that you can no longer buy from Broadwey Stores in Upwey.

Thank you to CALLUM SMART & RICHARD UTTLEY for three wonderful concerts in Bridport, Ilminster and Crewkerne last month. You can read a review here.
Sadly Daniel Grimwood is unable to play for us as he has injured his arm and needs to rest it for a few weeks. Libby Burgess has very kindly agreed to step in at short notice.

CREATING CARMEN IN BRIDPORT - JULY 2021

Upcoming Concerts All Concerts



The CONCERTS IN THE WEST series of MINI-TOURS offers a broad spectrum of Classical chamber music.
Concerts in the West was launched in 2006 and as with many organisations it has grown in the work that it undertakes and has many plans for the future, particularly in the area of education. We feel that there is an audience for Classical music of all types, but it has to be nurtured early, even if it takes some years to bring the two together.
Concerts in the West aims to bring talented young musicians to small venues in the West Country in areas that may not have easy access to music of this quality.
Short intensive tours, in Devon, Dorset and Somerset, are arranged for the musicians over a few days, when they have the opportunity to work on new repertoire, or to embed works more fully for upcoming recordings and major concerts elsewhere.
The enthusiasm and skill of these young people is breathtaking and has come about through many years of study (at least to postgraduate level), dedication and hard work. We feel very priviledged to hear them in such intimate settings.
The music played at the concerts is enormously varied and gives local audiences a wonderful opportunity to hear both familiar and unusual works for voice and instrument in many combinations.
