Ensemble Reza’s Candlelit Concert at St Swithun’s Church, East Grinstead
7 March @ 7:00 pm – 9:30 pm
Join us for an enchanting evening of classical music, featuring Rossini’s joyful String Sonata in C major, Strauss’s profound, moving Metamorphosen and Mozart’s dazzling Sinfonia Concertante, arranged for string sextet.
Set against a backdrop of candlelight, this concert is the perfect way to unwind after a busy week.
Established over a decade ago, Ensemble Reza is a group of mostly Sussex-based professional musicians, with the shared passion to create an exciting and inclusive musical community for audiences across Sussex and the South East. Widely celebrated for their accessible virtuoso performances, they were thrilled to welcome Dame Judi Dench as Patron in their tenth anniversary year. “I’m a real fan of Ensemble Reza. The passion and virtuosity of the musicians is evident in every note they play”.
The core ensemble of seven string players regularly expands to include accordion, bouzouki, guitar, double bass and piano. With talented composers and arrangers within the group, Ensemble Reza offers unique cross-cultural experiences spanning classical, folk, jazz and world music.
Alongside their work with Ensemble Reza, members enjoy busy performing careers with leading ensembles, including the London Philharmonic Orchestra, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, London Symphony Orchestra and London Mozart Players, as well as the National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company.
Over the past decade, Ensemble Reza has developed a rich and varied programme of events including concerts, free community performances, a community orchestra for all ages/abilities and an extensive education programme. Their ethos throughout has been to bring musicians and audiences of different ages and backgrounds together, changing lives through music.
