On Friday 13 November 2026, Portsmouth Cathedral will host a candlelit performance of Vivaldi’s *Four Seasons* and Vaughan-Williams’ *The Lark Ascending* by the London Concertante ensemble. The programme contrasts the vivid seasonal shifts of Vivaldi’s baroque masterpiece with the soaring, pastoral lyricism of Vaughan-Williams’ early 20th-century tone poem. Set within the cathedral’s stone architecture and illuminated by candlelight, the evening highlights the tension between the structured rhythms of the baroque era and the open, airy freedom of the English landscape. Additional baroque works complement the two central pieces, offering a journey through diverse moods and centuries. Tickets range from £27.80 to £76.55, and the performance begins at 7.30pm.
The programme features a range of baroque works, including Mozart's Marriage of Figaro Overture, Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, and Vaughan Williams' The Lark Ascending. These pieces showcase the contrasting styles of the baroque era and the early 20th-century tone poem, offering a diverse and captivating musical journey.
The performance will be conducted by the London Concertante ensemble, a group of world-class musicians known for their skill and passion for classical music. The ensemble will bring the programme to life with their captivating performances, transporting the audience to the vibrant landscapes of the seasons and the tranquil skies of a lark.
The event takes place on Friday 13 November 2026 at 7.30pm at Portsmouth Cathedral. Tickets are available in a range of prices from £27.80 to £76.55.
