The Night Shift at The Water Rats

Join us to raise a glass to a new season of The Night Shift with a pre-Oktoberfest treat.

An ensemble of the OAE’s fine brass and percussion players takes us on a whirlwind tour through the development of brass instruments in Europe. Expect cask-loads of fun with fanfares, marches and concertos with the odd hosepipe demonstration along the way.

There’ll be music from England, France, Germany, Austria and beyond… and the evening wouldn’t be complete without the opportunity for a sing-a-long and some audience participation!

The Night Shift is our series of informal chamber music gigs – literally music for smaller rooms, in the home or other places where people socialise. They’re a chance to hear the members of the OAE playing music that they’re passionate about and bringing in a wide range of musical influences. So come along, grab a drink with friends (or meet some new ones) and enjoy the music.

There are two ticket price choices for The Night Shift. Our suggested price is £13 or you can ‘pay what you choose’ by entering your own amount (with a £7 minimum up to as much as you like!).
