Pocket Sinfonia is a young ensemble aiming to reinterpret orchestral masterpieces for chamber music. They will bring a varied programme featuring arrangements by their talented violinist Eleanor Corr as well as Clementi's arrangement of Mozart's Jupiter Symphony. This ensemble comes with great recommendations from other music societies so we can look forward to a most enjoyable evening.

'In terms of sheer energy, the palm must go to Pocket Sinfonia, who managed to make Mozart’s brilliant Haffner Symphony burst with the energy of an orchestra; what’s more, the little pauses from pianist Emil Duncumb infused it with a real chamber-style rhythmic pliability.”
