Wyvern Affinado Guitar Orchestra will be performing a 50 minute concert for us, in the beautiful setting of Ham Farm Cottage gardens. Today WAGO will be playing Folguedo by Celso Machado, and the Lorca Concerto by Gerald Garcia, a double guitar concerto with WAGO as the orchestra for the 2 solo guitars, featuring Francisco Correa and Thorben Louw.
It's a wonderful, family-friendly opportunity to hear classical music performed in the daytime, in an informal but respectful setting.
This is an open, drop-in performance, entry is free, and there is no need to book a ticket in advance.
There will be a bar selling drinks and ice creams (open from 12-1.45), or you can bring your own. There will not be food for sale at the venue, but we suggest you bring a picnic with you to enjoy before or after the concert.

About WAGO
The Wyvern Afinado Guitar Orchestra (WAGO) was formed in early 2020 as a group of amateur classical guitarists who enjoy playing and performing music together from their base at Hewish & Puxton Village Hall in North Somerset. A ‘Wyvern’ is a 2-legged dragon, a version of which is on the flag of Somerset, and ‘Afinado’ is a Spanish word meaning ‘in tune’ or ‘polished’. WAGO are fortunate to gain the support of world class professional musicians in their concert preparation workshops, and as part of their concerts. WAGO’s music is classical in style but in varying formats including other orchestral instruments and in different ensemble groupings. WAGO also use non-standard guitars (soprano/octave, quint/alto, requinto, terz, quint bass, and contrabass) to enhance their colour and sound range.
