Please be advised that this orchestral performance will include the use of bright flashing lights and Portman lighting effects. These may involve intense flashes, rapid light changes, and bright visual effects, which may be
synchronised with the music. In addition, there may be moments of heightened volume and dynamic contrast typical of a live orchestra. These elements may not be suitable for individuals with photosensitive epilepsy, sensory sensitivities, or those sensitive to loud sound levels. Viewer discretion is advised. If you have any concerns or require assistance, please speak to a member of staff prior to the performance. Ear protection is recommended for those who may be sensitive to louder passages. Some of our concerts take place in stunning historic spaces such as cathedrals, minsters and abbeys. These beautiful buildings were not originally designed for modern amplified sound, so you may notice a more atmospheric sound, shaped by centuries-old stone and architecture which may differ slightly from a traditional theatre. What these spaces offer instead is an unforgettable atmosphere and the chance to enjoy live music in truly extraordinary surroundings – all while helping to support the preservation of these heritage landmarks.
