David Pipe

David Pipe opens the new season with a concert of works inspired by the variation form. From Karg-Elert’s mighty 54-variation Homage to Handel to Bonnet’s dramatic Variations de concert, we also hear J. S. Bach’s legendary Passacaglia, itself a form of theme and variation.

Enjoy a pre-concert lunch, served in the stunning surroundings of Kirklees’ historic town halls, before every organ concert. With a choice of soup and a roll, sandwiches, cakes and hot and cold drinks. Served from 11.30am. All items individually priced. No need to book, just turn up and enjoy!
