Meliora Collective (pocket orchestra)

More (Not So) Hidden Treasures

Just as Skipton Music had finalised ‘Hidden Treasures’, their 75th anniversary season celebrating women composers in 2022-2023, along came the Meliora Collective with a brilliant programme that would have fitted in beautifully.

No problem, they said to Steph and Meera, who launched this Manchester-based flexi ensemble in the midst of the pandemic, come to Skipton next year instead!

Programme to include:

Deborah Cheetham – Nonet ‘Ngarrgooroon’
Caroline Shaw – Entr’acte
Valerie Coleman – Red Clay & Mississippi Delta
Louise Farrenc – Nonet in E-flat major

For a full list of the music to be performed and more information about the artists, see skiptonmusic.org.uk
