An evening of fantasy and adventure awaits: from highland-inspired violin wizardry with star violinist Alexandra Wood in Bruch’s Scottish Fantasy, Nordic mystery courtesy of Sibelius with En Saga, and the sumptuous orchestration of Ravel’s score to the Nymph-laden ballet Daphnis et Chloé before a trip to Middle-earth featuring music from the epic blockbusting Lord of The Rings films.

There will be a retiring collection in aid of St Peter's Hospice.

Tickets: £13, £11, £9, £8 (concessions available), children £1 are available from St George's Bristol
