Worthing Philharmonic Orchestra Concert

Worthing Philharmonic Orchestra, Worthing

The WPO pairs works by two of the greatest Russian pianist-composers: the virtuoso Sergei Rachmaninov and the visionary Alexander Scriabin. Rachmaninov’s enduringly popular Piano Concerto No. 2 will be played on this occasion by Coulsdon and Purley Festival winner Ryan Sheng, himself a young virtuoso pianist of astonishing talent.
Scriabin’s Symphony No. 2 is both a grand statement within the broader late-Romantic century symphonic tradition, and a prophetic hint at things to come in this composer’s highly individual orchestral writing, inspired by his mystic-philosophical worldview.
Parry’s Symphonic Variations open the programme. They remain one of his most popular works and a fine example of the variation form.

Shops and Shopping: the Small Shop through the Ages – a talk by Janet Pennington

East Preston & Kingston Preservation Society, East Preston, Littlehampton

We take shopping for granted nowadays, using our local shops - if we still have them - and going to the supermarket. We can even order on-line and have a home delivery at our convenience. How different was it for our ancestors? Would we recognise a medieval shopfront in our own High Street? And what about shop signs and shop names - how have they changed? Do you remember bacon machines, cash railways and no self-service? Janet’s talk will take us back through nostalgia and beyond. Entry is free for EPKPS members. Visitors £3, payable on entry (cash only). All admissions subject to availability of seats on arrival.
