May 12 2022, 8:09 pm

Already binged through the second season of Bridgerton and wishing you could transport yourself into the steamy Regency-era world? An upcoming event at VanDusen Botanical Garden can help make that happen.

Spring Strings is an afternoon cello concert happening on VanDusen’s Great Lawn on May 28.

Low Strung, a classically-trained cello group based at Yale University, will entertain guests with rock and pop hits from various artists, including Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Queen and the Beatles.

Low Strung was founded in 2006 and is described as the largest all-cello rock group in the world. The virtuosos use the instrument to dynamic effect, creating unique arrangements of rock classics, heavy metal favourites, and pop songs that are a hit with audiences wherever they play.

Dress up in costumes and Regency-era attire and spend the day exploring the 55-acres of VanDusen Botanical Garden before settling in for the live performance happening at 2 pm. Picnic blankets and low chairs are welcome for the concert.
