This August, prepare to be captivated as the renowned London Chamber Orchestra (LCO) and soloist Charlotte Bowden take centre stage at 116 Pall Mall, offering an experience that will leave you spellbound. Immerse yourself in an enchanting opera-inspired setlist, carefully curated to transport you to another time and captivate your senses.

Charlotte Bowden is a brilliantly talented rising star of opera, who made her debut as a 2022 Jerwood Young Artist at Glyndebourne Festival last year. She also performed as a finalist in the 2022 Kathleen Ferrier Awards, and at esteemed venues such as the Royal Albert Hall and Wigmore Hall.

From beloved Handel arias, such as the enchanting "Endless pleasure" and soul-stirring "Lascia ch'io pianga", to the magnificent works of Mozart, "Deh vieni" and "Ach ich fuhl’s”, this setlist is a testament to the timeless beauty of the operatic genre.

Make this event extra special and treat yourself to the exquisite Searcys Afternoon Tea bundle from 3pm, featuring a delightful selection of delicate sandwiches, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and jam, as well as an array of delectable pastries and cakes.
