A new development this season is a monthly Listening Club – a bit like a book club, taking one of the pieces of music from the upcoming concert. We meet up online and listen to the piece before discussing it in a friendly environment. If you’re interested in joining the Listening Club, please click here or send an email to skiptonmusic2@gmail.com
For access to online playlists and more information about the artists, please see skiptonmusic.org.uk
