Welcome to Higham Hall

The 5 November is the start of a very special weekend for music lovers. Alan Cuckston’s weekend on the harpsichord leads on to 2 recitals of music for the harpsichord on 7 and 8 November. An afternoon concert with the Fitzwilliam Quartet on Sunday 7 November will feature a pre-recording performance of Bruckner’s Quintet plus Mozart’s Quartet in B flat K458 and Carolyn Sparey’s Fantasia in G with the composer joining the quartet.

The winter programme contains even more music but also, and of course, a wide range of courses on art, craft, history, film, dance and literature. An increasing range of foreign languages is also being developed - so we hope you will find something to excite you.
