Picnic Weekend: Picnic Concert 6 July 2025
📅 Sunday 6 July 2025
Time: 2:00pm
Location: Fairlight Hall, Martineau Lane, Fairlight, Hastings TN35 5DR
Our own fab four - Curtis Phill Hsu, Harmony Zhu, Mariamna Sherling and Gabrielė Sutkutė - are all spectacular pianists in their own right. This afternoon’s concert offers a tantalising glimpse of each; all four will give a short but perfectly formed recital with music ranging from Rameau and Chopin, to Granados, Ravel and Debussy.
You are very welcome to picnic in the lovely gardens before the concert, or you can book a place for a delicious buffet lunch to be served on the terrace, which will include 2 courses, wine and coffee or tea.
After the concert there will be the chance to get to know the pianists better through our informal Q & A. And you can have a listen to our Picnic Weekend Playlist on Spotify here.
There will be a long interval of 45 minutes.
