About this Event
Petworth Proms
The National Trust in partnership with Petworth Festival presents three magical musical evenings in the historic grandeur of Petworth House. Join us to hear a sequence of mini-concerts by talented young musicians – all final year students of the Royal Academy of Music – in four of the magnificent state rooms of the 17th century mansion.
Following on from October’s enormously popular event, the Petworth Proms in May will feature a new lineup of musicians including Flavio Rodrigues and Goncalo Pires (cello and accordion) performing in the Square Dining Room; Maryna Rodrigues and Georgi Dimitrov (soprano and guitar) in the North Gallery; pianist Jiali Wang by the Grand Staircase; and the Karelia String Quartet performing in the Carved Room, which looks out over Petworth Park.
On arrival, drinks will be available from 6.30pm before audiences will be invited to join one of four groups which will proceed at 7.20pm to the first in a series of simultaneous concerts, each of which lasts 20 minutes. Following the first concert, you will be guided to the second room for the next performance. There will be a short interval where drinks will be served in the courtyard, allowing visitors to see the gardens and watch the sun go down over the park, before the third and fourth performances resume. The event will finish at approximately 9.45pm.
Please note arrival is via the Church Lodge entrance in Petworth town only for this event.
