Welcome
to another weekly round up of all things creative!
As
mentioned last week, September sees the return of the Kirklees Concert Season for
2022-23 with four fabulous concerts coming up this
month followed by a wonderful season of music to look forward to. The first lunchtime organ concert
of the Season takes place this coming Monday 12 September,
when David Pipe, Huddersfield’s Organ Curator takes the helm of the
magnificent Father Willis Organ. This is followed by the Orchestra of Opera North’s “An
American Concert in Paris’ on Thursday 15 September.
Later in the month a lunchtime chamber concert with
violin and piano music takes place at Dewsbury Town Hall on Wednesday 21
September and popular organist Jonathan
Scott from Bridgewater Hall in Manchester will be the Guest Organist at
the concert on 26 September.
September
also sees the welcome return of the Onwards
Festival (24 & 25 September), a multi venue live
music Festival with a twist which as the name suggests, leads audiences
successively through Huddersfield town centre, grassroots music venues,
showcasing a carefully curated programme of live music. Tickets are
available now so do check it out.
Please
scroll down for lots more creative events and activities coming up in the
week/s ahead.
