We are very sorry to have to announce that, due to the COVID19 pandemic, we have had to abandon our 2019-20 Season programme. However, in the hope that the current lockdown restrictions will be eased over the coming months, we are tentatively announcing our plans for next Season commencing Autumn 2020.
This programme assumes that it will be possible to commence live rehearsals by 21 September 2020. Should that not be possible then the plans will be modified.
Here are some of the highlights we hope to perform:
Concert 21 November 2020: St Peter's Sheringham - CANCELLED
"Appear in Visions to all Musicians"
Benjamin Briiten : Hymn to St Cecilia
Cecelia McDowell: Ave Maris Stella
Ralph Vaughan Williams: Five Mystical Songs
We are delighted to announce that our Baritone soloist will be the wonderful Jamie Hall accompanied by organ and string quartet - following concellation of this concert we very much hope that we will be able to welcome Jamie to join us on a future occasion - everyone who has been following his "bathrobe recitals" during lockdown will know what huge pleasure is derived from Jamie's singing.
