| A special concert - Alexandra Dariescu (piano) | Music in Lyddington's 2025 season is now over, but before the new season begins in March we are proud to present a special concert on 25th January. A solo recital by our very own Patron, Alexandra Dariescu. She will present a programme comprising Chopin Preludes and a collection of pieces entitled "A Child's Dream. This will also be a (slightly premature) opportunity to say thank you and farewell to Rev Canon Jane Baxter, who has done so much for Music in Lyddington in the ast 20 years, as she retires in April 2026. This concert does not form part of the regular Music in Lyddington season, and tickets will be available shortly from the usual outlets. Do join us for an extra speical Sunday afternoon of beautiful music. |

| Alexandra writes: A Child's Dream is a reflection of my personal journey in the music world, from some of the every first pieces I played as a child to significant milestones, sharing with you all my exciting story. This programme showcases the music that has been my lifelong companion, travelling with me across the globe, but also some hidden gems by neglected composers throughout history, voices that deserve to be heard.As a musician, my life is a whirlwind of new faces, places, pianos and audiences, yet through this ever-changing landscape, music has remained my unwavering constant.
I invite you all to join me in htis exciting journey through my musical stories and hear, alongside some of ht emost popular and cherished piano pieces ever written, some musical treasures that reflect the richness and diversity of our beautiful society. |
