Sunday series concert with violinist Emily Sun and pianist Alim Beisembayev at The Old Swan Hotel.
Emily Sun and Alim Beisembayev are playing The Old Swan Hotel on Sunday 24 January 2027, as part of the Harrogate International Sunday Series. It's a violin and piano duo, with Sun on the violin and Beisembayev on the piano, and the two of them sharing the stage for the whole set.
The Sunday Series is a regular fixture of the Harrogate International Festivals, and this is one of the morning concerts they run throughout the season. It's a chamber music pairing — just the two of them — rather than a full orchestra, so the focus stays on the dialogue between the violin and the piano. If you're into classical music, that's exactly the kind of thing this series is built around: bringing in different performers for a series of recitals across the town.

As for the practical side, it's a morning slot, starting at 11:00am. That's the thing about the Sunday Series — it's designed to be a late-morning outing, so you're in and out well before the day is over. The venue is The Old Swan Hotel, right in the centre of Harrogate, so it's an easy one to get to if you're already in town. The concert runs on Sunday 24 January 2027, starting at 11:00am.
