Saxophonist Huw Wiggin is no stranger to Wallingford, having dazzled audiences with his expressive and virtuosic playing, and here he returns with not one, but two colleagues. Anita D’Attellis also is a well-known figure here, both in our concerts and in her own Winter series as piano soloist and chamber musician. Harpist Oliver Wass is new to Wallingford audiences: a prizewinning graduate of London’s Guildhall School of Music, he also holds a first-class degree in chemistry, but has chosen to pursue a career in music as soloist, chamber musician and orchestral player, playing both modern and historical harps in major concert halls in the UK and abroad.

Together, the musicians present a typically eclectic programme ranging from Bach to Gershwin’s ever popular Rhapsody In Blue, via the outrageous virtuosity of Liszt’s Hungarian Rhapsody, Morricone’s film music and Piazzolla's Libertango.
