About the event
Trio Paradis play a Café Concert in the beautiful surroundings and fine acoustic of St Andrew's Church, Chippenham on the first Tuesday of each month at 11am: informal feel-good music events with refreshments available in the pop-up café from c10.15am, where you can meet friends and make new ones over tea/coffee and cakes, and enjoy live music.
February’s concert is a collection of music by South American composers to bring some sun to dark winter days… including dances (Tango, Rumba and more), alongside classical and reflective pieces. Composers include Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos, the king of Argentinian Tango, Astor Piazzolla, fellow Argentinian Magdalena Garcia Robson, Cuban brother and sister composers Ernestina and Ernesto Lecuona, Mexican Manuel Ponce and Carlos Guastavino, ‘the Schubert of the Pampas’.
The concert lasts c45m and entrance - or rather, exit! - is by pay-what-you-feel donation, with a retiring collection. All ages welcome, including children.
