1st Vilolinst was good. It was nice to go out for an evenings entertainment. We love classical music and attend concerts in the UK. Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra who are fantastic. A small ensemble can never match full orchestra, but if you would like a relaxing evening in beautiful location it's worth going. For us unfortunately most of the performance was spoilt by a rather obsessed young lady who was constantly recording the performance & moving constantly to do this.
A Remarkable Experience.
