Buxton Musical Society — 78th Season
Our 78th Season contains a range of music to suit all tastes. We continue our tradition of inviting young artists at the beginning of their careers to perform with us in the hope that they may remember us when they are famous! We also have our usual array of nationally and internationally known performers singing a range of music from Bach to Britten.
