This is going to be an exciting event featuring well known and popular Russian music (the first of them with an Italian accent) and an excellent overture by English composer Doreen Carwithen (Mary Alwyn) loosely based on a John Masefield novel of the same name, remininscent of Walton and Vaughan Williams.
