The brilliant young violinist Nicola Benedetti will lead in the second half, performing Vivaldi’s ever-popular Four Seasons. On this occasion former Poet Laureate, Sir Andrew Motion, has been commissioned to write a series of poems which he will read during the performance, to illuminate the music’s evocation of the seasons. This concert will be a truly special experience, and a highlight of our season.

I have ordered 4 tickets for the EU Chamber Orchestra but see no way to book for the pre-concert Talk.
Please can you clarify for me.
