Musical Landscapes explores the enduring connection between music and nature. Inspired by mountains, gardens, rivers, and changing seasons, this lunchtime programme brings together works that evoke places both familiar and imagined. Whether tranquil or dramatic, each piece offers a different perspective on the landscapes that have inspired composers across generations. Take a break from your day and enjoy an hour of music that invites you to pause, listen, and wander.
