An invitation to join the Philharmonia at Charterhouse

22 June 2008

In conjunction with the Philharmonia Orchestra’s summer celebration of the works of Ralph Vaughan Williams, the Friends of the Philharmonia would like to extend an invitation for members of the Ralph Vaughan Williams Society to join them for a delightful day trip to Charterhouse, the school where Vaughan Williams was once a student.

You will enjoy a personal tour of the school grounds in picturesque Godalming, view rare Vaughan Williams archives and explore the chamber music of Vaughan Williams over tea with a chamber performance by members of the Philharmonia Orchestra. The programme will include: On Wemlock Edge, Ten Blake Songs, Romance and Pastorale, and Holst’s rarely heard Phatasiestuke for oboe and string quartet. –

Tickets are priced at £28 (including coach service) and £18 (travel on your own) per person.
