POPULAR CHESTER VIOLINIST SET TO STAGE TWO MOTHER'S DAY CONCERTS AT CHESTER TOWN HALL

Final rehearsals are underway for two special Mother's Day concerts at Chester Town Hall, which will feature one of the city's most popular musicians and an orchestra of no fewer than 20 musicians.

Classically trained violinist Philip Chidell, best known for entertaining residents and tourists in Chester city centre, is set to stage the concerts at Chester Town Hall on Mother's Day, Sunday 15th March. By popular request, there will be a matinée performance at 2.30pm as well as a performance at 7.30pm. Following on from the success of his Christmas concerts, the special Mother's Day performances will once again see Philip leading his 20-strong orchestra of talented young musicians from across the North-West as they perform a special programme celebrating motherhood, alongside timeless classics.

Reflecting on his return to Chester Town Hall, Philip said:

"Chester Town Hall is a wonderful space to perform in, and Mother’s Day felt like the perfect moment to share music that’s expressive, romantic and full of warmth. It’s very much a celebration for everyone – so yes, fathers are also allowed."

Audiences can expect a mix of popular classical favourites, film themes, music from the West End, Broadway and more.

A graduate of the prestigious Chetham's School of Music in Manchester, Philip set up his orchestra 18 months ago, fulfilling a long-held dream. Together, they have now staged seven concerts in Chester, attracting large, enthusiastic audiences each time.
