About Oxford Concert Party
A lively and highly entertaining group of six first-rate musicians
Oxford Concert Party is a lively and highly entertaining group of six first-rate musicians with a unique repertoire which ranges from Vivaldi to Piazzolla, via Argentinian Tango, Jewish Klezmer, French café music, and music from Eastern Europe, Ireland and Scotland. Our main aim as performers is to connect with our audience, break down artificial performance barriers, and make sure that everyone has a good time!
Mission Statement
Through community concerts and workshops the music of the Oxford Concert Party ignites emotions and facilitates access to an inner world of infinite creativity.
The Oxford Concert Party defies the sterile world of the concert hall and, with an original and kaleidoscopic repertoire, makes music accessible to all; and with passion and energy, humour and sensitivity, skill and experience, they take their listeners on a journey which transforms, heals and humanises, especially those imprisoned by isolation, disability, illness or walls.
