Flute And Harp

MUSIC lovers will get the chance to enjoy the accomplished sounds of professional harp and flute players when The Metis Collective play Southend’s Civic Centre this spring, as part of Southend Council’s Concert Series.

 On Friday, February 7, Harriet Adie, a professional harpist, will be playing a programme including music by Debussy, Rota, Massenet and Mozart alongside flautist Mary Thorneloe. 

 A busy professional harpist for over 15 years, Harriet is passionate about her instrument and enjoys the many opportunities her performing career has provided for sharing her love of the harp with other people.

 An accomplished chamber musician, Harriet has performed with renowned ‘cellist Julian Lloyd-Webber, and was for many years, a member of the Swan Duo.

 Mary Thorneloe studied at the Royal Northern College of Music, the Royal Academy of Music and also spent a summer at the Banff Centre for the Arts, Canada, on a Yehudi Menuhin Scholarship.

 She has played with many of the country’s leading orchestras such as the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, the English National Ballet and the BBC Symphony Orchestra with whom she played at the first night of the BBC Proms.

 Tickets are £12.  Call the Civic Centre on: 01702 215011.
