International Concert Series 2024/25

Described as ‘early music’s very own Spice Girls’, the vibrant recorder quartet Palisander will present its ‘Double, double, toil and trouble’ on this All Hallows' Eve.

Throughout the ages, music and magic have been intrinsically linked. Featuring music by Tartini, J S Bach and Hildegard von Bingen, alongside renaissance consort music and contemporary works, the acclaimed recorder group Palisander explores the historic relationship between music and the magical spectrum: including elements of mathematics, philosophy, nature, religion and the occult. 

Tickets: £12.50, £10 (concession over 60s); £5 for Royal Holloway alumni and non-Royal Holloway students; FREE for Royal Holloway students, Royal Holloway staff and children under the age of 16. Season tickets apply to this event.
