$Budapest Caf\u00e9 Orchestra - SOLD OUT!$

The award-winning Budapest Café Orchestra back to Shrewsbury!

Established by composer and violinist Christian Garrick, the electrifying 4-piece Budapest Café Orchestra play gypsy and folk-flavoured music, including traditional Balkan, Russian, Hungarian and Romanian tunes, with jazz nuances and following their own unique arrangements. They are famed for their ‘distilled concertos’ in which they artfully rework masterpieces by the greats of the Romantic era.

The Budapest Café Orchestra will be preceded by a pre-concert 'warm-up' performance by Shropshire Music Service's young 'World Folk Ensemble' at 7pm.

Bring the whole family! It’s a great opportunity for children to see different instruments in action: violin, darbuka, button accordion, double bass, saz, guitar, balalaika and domra!
We recommend booking your tickets in advance as this concert is likely to sell out.
