THERE was a full house for a classical benefit concert in aid of the Teignmouth & Shaldon Museum.

Harpist Florence Sitruk and cellist Christoph Bunzendahl performed at Bitton House, and socialised with the audience at an after show dinner.

The event was organised by Beryl King, and the evening featured works by Bach, Boccherini, and Elias Parish Alvars, the Teignmouth born composer and harpist.

The programme showed the great virtuostic range of the harp and the cello, and was enthusiastically received by the packed house.

The two performers, who arrived straight from concerts in Berlin and Antwerp, are no strangers to Teignmouth, having organised two harp festivals in appreciation of Parish Alvars. Another is planned for next spring.
