Overview
The wide-ranging cultural historian Gavin Plumley published his first book earlier this year – described as ‘both a sweeping history and an intimate account of making a home, told through the prism of a cottage on the edge of England.’ The book launch itself is aptly illustrated by leading artists performing English music.
This concert is part of the CAVATINA Chamber Music Trust ticket scheme, offering free tickets to those aged 8-25
