St Mary’s Church, Penzance is an important venue for classical music and having had to cancel the entire Spring Concert Series earlier this year, Music at St Marys made bold plans to present a short series of live chamber music, featuring the newly-formed ‘Chapel Street Quartet’, drawn from young professionals from West Cornwall this autumn.
Live audience numbers have obviously been restricted and now new lockdown restrictions are in place. Fortunately, a grant from FEAST has enabled a high quality live streaming facility to reach a much wider audience. Uptake has been very encouraging, and numbers are continuing to build.
A video of ‘A Classical Feast’, featuring a programme of Mozart, Beethoven and Schubert can be found at:
