Flexicare are thrilled to announce the overwhelming success of our annual ‘Night in the Museum’ Concert, held at the University of Oxford Museum of Natural History.![]()
![]()
The event, which took place on 1st March 2025, brought together a diverse audience of music enthusiasts, philanthropists, and supporters of Flexicare’s invaluable mission. The evening was marked by captivating performances by the talented Ivel Flute Trio: Catherine Wilmers, Emma Halnan and Jill Morton, who enchanted the audience with their remarkable talent and diverse repertoire.![]()
![]()
The concert featured works by Dmitri Shostakovich and Josef Suk, ending with a feverishly upbeat performance of Christopher Caliendo’s Caliente for flute, cello and piano. The Trio lent a special focus on some little-known women composers of the 20th century: Peggy Spencer-Palmer and Alice Verne Bredt, featuring some enchanting phantasies, bagatelles and sarabandes. But the high point was Karl Jenkins’ Ryers Down, an evocation of the Gower Peninsula written especially for flautist Emma Halnan, who performed it. The concert was delivered in the thrilling atmosphere of Oxford University’s Natural History Museum, where the breathtaking architecture and the dignified presence of elephant, giraffe and dinosaur skeletons lent a spellbinding enchantment to the evening.![]()
