The Adbaston Community Concert Society, on this their 20th year of running quality concerts, present the London Handel Players who coincidentally are celebrating their 25th anniversary!

They bring together leading period-instrument specialists in the field of baroque chamber music.

Closely associated with the music of George Frideric Handel they also explore the work of his contemporaries which today include Bach, Vivaldi, Leclair, Geminiani and Telemann.

They perform regularly at Handel’s church, St George’s Church, Hanover Square, as well as the Handel’s House Museum and Wigmore Hall as well as at major venues and festivals both around the UK and internationally.

A concert not to be missed.
