Tickets for both events are no longer available online but will be available on the door. For the Vespers concert we have front nave and side aisle seats available. There are two events on 19th March (at 11am & 7:30pm) celebrating this great Russian composer. The morning event, in the Chapter House, will comprise two works for Piano Trio given by players from Bristol Ensemble. The works performed will be Rachmaninov's Trio Élégiaque No.1 in G minor and Tchaikovsky's Trio in A minor op. 50. In the evening, we present a choral concert in the Cathedral of Sergei Rachmaninov's atmospheric All Night Vigil (Vespers) which promises to be an overwhelming experience in the unique accoustic of our great Gothic building. Despite its name, this work will finish soon after 9pm
