SUMMARY:60th Anniversary Gala
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the 60th anniversary of St Botolph’s Music Society with an unforgettable evening of live classical music. This special anniversary concert is devoted entirely to the music of Camille Saint-Saëns\, one of France’s greatest composers. From the dazzling Bacchanale from Samson & Delilah to the majestic Symphony No. 3\, the programme highlights the remarkable range of Saint-Saëns’ music. As a result\, audiences will experience an evening filled with colour\, drama and orchestral brilliance. \nThe concert features outstanding local soloists Melinda Greenfield (violin) and James Greenfield (cello). First\, Melinda performs the graceful Havanaise. Then\, Melinda and James unite for the expressive La Muse et le Poète. Meanwhile\, James also takes centre stage in the much-loved The Swan from Carnival of the Animals. Finally\, the evening concludes with Saint-Saëns’ magnificent Symphony No. 3\, the celebrated “Organ Symphony”\, featuring Philip Elwell on the organ. \nWhether you’re a lifelong classical music enthusiast or discovering orchestral music for the first time\, you’ll find something to enjoy. Together\, we celebrate six decades of music-making by St Botolph’s Music Society in Colchester. Join us for this landmark performance and experience a live orchestra\, exceptional local musicians and one of the composer’s greatest programmes.Programme \nSaint-Saëns: Symphony No. 3 ‘Organ Symphony’\, organist Philip ElwellSaint-Saëns: Samson & Delilah: BacchanaleSaint-Saëns: Havanaise in E\, Op. 83\, soloist Melinda GreenfieldSaint-Saëns: La Muse et la Poèt\, soloists Melinda and James GreenfieldSaint-Saëns: Carnival of the Animals: The Swan\, soloist James Greenfield \nTickets on sale until 12:00pm on Saturday\, 21 November 2026.
