Bradfield Festival of Music 2026 : Lisa Friend Trio

Every year, the Bradfield Festival of Music features a week of wonderful concerts performed by highly sought artists in the magical setting of St Nicholas’ Church, High Bradfield with its superb acoustic and fantastic views across Bradfield Dale.

Lisa Friend (flute) with friends Martin Radford (cello) and Mark Kinkaid (piano) have international reputations as soloists, ensembles and have extensive recordings, broadcast appearances and performances.
