This year, the Academy of St Martin in the Fields is celebrating the life and legacy

of their founder Sir Neville Marriner (1924–2016), and will treat residents of Wargrave

with a special ‘not-to-be-missed’ performance.

After mesmerising audiences at the last three Wargrave Festivals, we are excited to bring you this magical experience and what is sure to be the most glorious performance in St Mary’s Church by one of the world’s finest chamber orchestras, renowned for fresh, brilliant interpretations of the world’s greatest orchestral music.

This year’s programme includes Mendelssohn’s Hebrides Overture, a stunning new commission by British composer Errollyn Wallen CBE, Mozart’s Paris Symphony, and Beethoven’s Violin Concerto; giving you the chance to hear one of the most famous and well-loved violin concertos performed by world class violinist, Tomo Keller.
