Looking for something to do on the last day of half term?

Join us at 2pm today for an afternoon of music, storytelling and a little mischief!

Chapel Street Winds and narrator Kesha Darling bring us music from Peter and the Wolf, Frozen and more, before a wonderfully mischievous retelling of Little Red Riding Hood, inspired by Roald Dahl's Revolting Rhymes.

A lovely way to round off half term for the whole family!

There is a particular stillness to St Endellion Church.

That sense of peace as you come through the door, take your seat and wait for the music to begin.

For nearly 70 years, musicians and audiences have gathered here for concerts, and we feel incredibly lucky to be able to make music in this extraordinary place.

This Saturday, we welcome an artist whose music feels particularly at home here.

Italian pianist and composer Olivia Belli creates music with space in it. Inspired by the natural world and the landscapes around her home in the Marche region of Italy, her music is delicate and contemplative, inviting you to slow down and really listen.

As the evening light begins to soften outside, we’ll gather inside the church, with Olivia at the piano and the remarkable stillness of St Endellion around us.

The resonance of the piano. The pauses between notes. The quiet of an audience listening together.

Some music simply needs to be heard live.

Olivia Belli
Saturday 12 September, 7pm
St Endellion Church

We’d love you to join us.

Less than two weeks to go!

On Saturday 12 September, acclaimed Italian pianist and composer Olivia Belli joins us at St Endellion for an intimate solo concert, one of only four UK dates on her current tour.

You may already have encountered Olivia’s music through Apple Music’s Piano Chill or Spotify’s EQUAL: Classical playlists. Her latest album, Daimon, takes inspiration from Homer’s Odyssey, transforming its story of journey, struggle and homecoming into beautiful contemporary piano music.

Expect an intimate evening of atmospheric music that feels both classical and cinematic. If you enjoy beautiful piano music, atmospheric film scores or simply switching off and becoming lost in music, this concert is for you.

Saturday 12 September | 7:30pm
St Endellion Church

From the Southbank Centre to St Endellion…

Just two days after making her Southbank Centre debut in London, acclaimed Italian pianist and composer Olivia Belli comes to St Endellion Church.

Signed to Sony Classical and commissioned by the BBC Proms, Olivia is one of the most streamed Italian women artists of all time. Her beautiful, atmospheric music is inspired by nature, literature and spirituality.

If you enjoy Ludovico Einaudi, Max Richter or Hania Rani, this could be one for you.

Saturday 12 September | 7.30pm
St Endellion Church

Book tickets: https://www.ticketsource.com/endelienta-arts/olivia-belli/2026-09-12/19:30/t-yzznmmv
