It’s less than a month away until the acclaimed Paradox Orchestra make their inaugural appearance in Knaresborough for the first outdoor gig of its kind in the grounds of the beautiful Conyngham Hall.

Promising some of the most classic moments in rock music alongside the River Nidd in Knaresborough to mark the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s iconic album, The Dark Side of the Moon, this concert by candlelight will feature the 20-strong string orchestra famed for their powerful performances.

The orchestra’s expert musicianship and imaginative arrangements will bring new life to hits including Wish You Were Here, Money, and Comfortably Numb.

The outdoor concert is the first to take place in the grounds close to the River Nidd and promises a festival atmosphere.
