DEBUT brings their groundbreaking Classical Concert Series (as featured in Dorset Living & Opera Now) to Bournemouth. This unforgettable evening throws open the doors of Merton Russell-Cotes’ home and invites you in for a night of opera, conversation with the artists and delightful insights into the world of classical music and the Museum itself.
