University Music is proud to present its Spring programme of concerts and events for the 2024 season. As ever, there's a thrilling breadth and diversity in the musical offering, which brings together University Music scholars, students, staff and members of the wider community in a range of programmes and venues. Alongside performances from our own musicians and ensembles, it's our pleasure to host a professional chamber music series in association with the Bournemouth Chamber Music Society. We look forward to welcoming you to our fantastic events this Spring.
