Classical Recitals Print E-mail

...the playing had great delicacy and poise... beautifully executed... considerable range of tone colours. The advanced techniques required in the flute part were managed successfully and both players conveyed the spirit of the piece and their own enjoyment of it.

- Pan, (The British Flute Society Magazine).

Anne Allen & Christopher Taylor Flutist Anne Allen has performed recitals for many concert societies and private gatherings, including performances with Katherine Jenkins, Hayley Westenra, Roger Vignoles and Christopher Taylor. These usually take the form of flute and piano , flute and harp or flute and guitar duo recitals but Anne performs with various chamber groups.




This was the best concert I ever heard in this house" was stated independently by two members who have been coming for more than 30 years. Thankyou Anne and Chris.
