Description
As part of a small audience, enjoy an exquisite performance as Jane Austen’s beloved novel Pride and Prejudice is brought to life through an instantly-recognisable musical score. Inspired by the BBC’s beloved 1995 TV adaption of Pride and Prejudice, this performance brings the novel to life with music adapted by Carl Davis from his original BBC score, and a spoken narration written by acclaimed novelist Gill Hornby.
Performance by Susan Rutherford (narrator), Leora Cohen (violin) and Paul Wingfield (piano). This event is a tribute to the film/TV composer Carl Davis, who sadly died on 3 August 2023, and is generously sponsored by Trinity College, Cambridge. After the performance, head to the historic kitchen for drinks.
