Skipton Music Presents: Kosmos Ensemble
Tue 25th March 2025 7:30pm
Described by Richard Morrison (The Times) as having ‘telepathic rapport, dazzling virtuosity, serious scholarship, intellectual curiosity and impeccable musicianship’, Kosmos Ensemble is re-defining the relationship between classical and world music.
For this concert the group have crafted a unique programme inspired by music from all around the globe. Wild Gypsy fiddling, emotive Jewish and Greek music glide seamlessly into hot-blooded tango and Scottish reels, alongside interpretations of Japanese, Polish and Swedish songs, all in new arrangements by and for the ensemble.

With support from a generous legacy by Dr Philip da Costa
