CLASSICAL MUSIC / Coda
ADDICTS of the North can indulge their appetites this weekend in the unlikely surroundings of a 17th-century barn at the foot of Fetcham Down, Surrey. Following close on current London fashion, this is a Summer Festival of Music and Food: your pounds 14 tickets for the Scandinavian-themed concerts include a Nordic buffet supper and a glass of a local brew that used to be called elderflower champagne until the name was banned last week by obstructive Frenchmen. Performers are not so well known, but the programmes are eye-catchingly quirky. They celebrate Grieg and introduce some Danish novelties, including the premiere of a 50- year-old Divertimento by Niels Viggo Bentzon and a wind piece by a little-known member of the Bach family - Erik Bach. (Well, maybe not that family.) Details from 0372 454963 or 375969.
