The Enlightenment

Join some of Fiori’s favourite players to celebrate New Year 2025.

To honour Albert Schweitzer – musician, philosopher & humanitarian (who was born 150 years ago in January 1875) – Fiori perform a New Year concert of Enlightenment music, fittingly set in Northampton’s Museum & Art Gallery & featuring Heidi Fardell flute & Kerstin Linder-Dewan in amiable flute quartets by some of the Enlightenment’s lesser known pioneering musical spirits.  This concert takes place in the fine centrally located setting of Northampton’s recently refurbished Museum & Art Gallery.
