Mother's Day Concerts at Chester Town Hall Feature Violinist Philip Chidell

Final rehearsals are currently in progress for two special Mother's Day concerts scheduled to take place at Chester Town Hall. The events will showcase one of the city's most popular musicians, classically trained violinist Philip Chidell, alongside an orchestra comprising no fewer than 20 talented musicians.

Concert Details and Performances

Philip Chidell, best known for entertaining both residents and tourists in Chester city centre, is set to stage the concerts at Chester Town Hall on Mother's Day, Sunday, March 15. By popular request, there will be a matinée performance at 2.30pm as well as an evening performance at 7.30pm.

Following the success of his previous Christmas concerts, these special Mother's Day performances will once again see Philip leading his 20-strong orchestra of talented young musicians from across the North-West region. The orchestra will perform a special programme celebrating motherhood, alongside timeless classics and popular favourites.

Artist's Vision and Background

Reflecting on his return to Chester Town Hall, Philip Chidell said: "Chester Town Hall is a wonderful space to perform in, and Mother’s Day felt like the perfect moment to share music that’s expressive, romantic and full of warmth. It’s very much a celebration for everyone – so yes, fathers are also allowed."

Audiences can expect a diverse musical programme including:

  • Popular classical favourites
  • Film themes and soundtracks
  • Music from West End and Broadway productions
  • A special selection celebrating motherhood

A graduate of the prestigious Chetham's School of Music in Manchester, Philip established his orchestra 18 months ago, fulfilling a long-held dream. Together, they have now staged seven concerts in Chester, attracting large and enthusiastic audiences on each occasion.
