Inside Croydon is delighted to team up with the London Mozart Players to offer three lucky subscribers each a pair of tickets – worth £65 – for their Changing Seasons concert at the Fairfield Halls on Saturday, February 15.
The concert is a new multi-genre spectacular from Croydon’s resident orchestra, created as a reflection on the climate emergency and its impact on our future.
When Vivaldi wrote his Four Seasons in 1723, the world was a difference place. As nature continues to inspire art, Vivaldi’s piece remains popular and still has a place in today’s society, as this London Mozart Players concert will strive to demonstrate.
This exciting production mixes Vivaldi’s classic with new commissions from four talented local arts groups.
Working with professional composers Fiona Brice and Sarah Freestone, four community groups – Club Soda, Croydon Music and Arts, Queer Croydon x Stanley Arts and Subrang Arts – will perform their unique pieces which have been inspired by the seasonal themes in Vivaldi’s music.
“These new works respond to our changing world, creating a fusion of genres and artforms that culminate in a spectacular performance at Fairfield Halls,” the concert producers say.
Complete with new poetry, dance performances and engaging video content to introduce each artist, Changing Seasons is an accessible and proudly Croydon-made performance suitable for audiences of all ages.
Tickets for the concert, LMP’s first at Fairfield Halls in 2025, are on sale now – just click here to visit the ticketing site. Discounts are available for those on Universal or Pension Credit and for those under 30.
