Concerts
While the main focus is on opera, Bury Court also hosts concerts and musical performances. Not only do we work closely with Southbank Sinfonia and showcase especially gifted Young Artists but we are also interested in promoting music that offers something different and exciting.
2012 Concert
The 2012 Concert will be on Saturday March 10th, and will feature soprano Laurie Ashworth and tenor Andrew Staples singing arias from less well known bel canto operas, and the best young Italian cellist of his generation, Umberto Clerici, all accompanied by the full Southbank Sinfonia under Simon Over.
