Nature and Us

Immerse yourself in music inspired by the natural world at our latest Great Sound Exhibition. Nature and Us is a musical smorgasbord presented across 2 stages at the world-renowned Llangollen Pavilion. 

If you like traditional masterpieces we've got you covered with a smattering of Vivaldi and Elgar. If drama and intensity are more your style then look no further than Piazzolla and Grieg. You may enjoy a modern Welsh twist from Claire Victoria-Roberts or Cameron Biles-Liddell or some sumptuous grandeur from Smetana. 

If you are young, or at least young at heart, then join Slumbersaurus as he embarks on a new musical adventure across the forests, canals and hills of the Vale of Llangollen. For the vocal connoisseurs amongst you, delve into the rich sonorities supplied by NEW Voices. 

Exploration of the two spaces is encouraged, dip in and out, grab a drink at the bar, or simply settle in for a musical experience like no other. Download the exhibition map and programme here.

Nature and Us is supported by the Arts Council of Wales, the AONB Clwydian Range and Dee Valley's Sustainable Development and the RVW Trust. We are extremely grateful to all partners for their support.

This is event is presented in connection with the Llangollen Christmas Festival. The festival begins with a parade through the town at 1pm (expect some disruption on Abbey Road at this time), followed by events and a market in and around the town. The Christmas lights will be switched on at 5pm followed by Fireworks. We have timed our event to finish in time for everyone to enjoy a spectacular end to the day.
