SUMMARY:Settle Orchestra – The French Connection
DESCRIPTION:Following a highly successful year of music-making, Settle Orchestra brings its 2026 season to a radiant close this June with a vibrant programme of French elegance and classical vitality.\nThe programme opens with Claude Debussy’s Sarabande, in the luminous orchestral arrangement by Maurice Ravel. From there, Mozart’s Symphony No. 31 in D major, “Paris” brings energy and theatrical brilliance, capturing the vibrancy of an 18th-century musical capital with elegance and flair.\nThe second half returns to the French sound world with Ravel’s beloved Pavane pour une infante défunte, a piece of understated beauty and nostalgic grace, followed by Francis Poulenc’s spirited Sinfonietta, whose playful character and bright orchestral colours provide a jubilant finale.\nGiven the success of our previous concerts, we recommend that you book your tickets in advance to make sure that you have a seat.\nThey’ll be available from:\n\nForage & Feast in Settle\nOrchestra members\nThe Settle Orchestra website\n\nThey’ll also be available on the door, subject to availability after advance bookings.\nTickets booked in advance will be held up until 15 minutes before the performances start at 15:30 and then released for general admission. We always aim to keep our ticket prices affordable, but we appreciate that affordability isn’t the same for everyone.\nIf you would like to donate the value of a ticket go to the booking page on our website click on £15 donation in the drop-down menu to add this to your purchase/basket, and we will ensure that somebody less able to afford the full cost of a ticket is invited to attend one of our concerts.\nIf you, or someone you know, is unable to afford the full cost of a ticket please contact Charlie Dobson in confidence at charles_snaygill@yahoo.co.uk, and we will let you know when tickets are available.\nWe look forward to seeing you!\n
