Upcoming Performances
Event : Summer CelebrationDate : Saturday 15th July
Location : St Mary's Church, Leatherhead For friends to sing together for twenty years deserves a Grand Celebration and to mark Ashtead Singers' twenty years of fabulous music, fun and fellowship, we are giving a concert called Summer Celebration at 7.30pm on Saturday 15th July at St Mary's, Leatherhead. We have chosen some of our favourite music that we've sung during the past two decades, some of which are well known and some are revelations! The music will take you on a trip round Europe and cover around five centuries, from the Italian Renaissance music of Pellegrini and Palestrina, through divine Mozart and searingly lovely Bruckner in Austria, via cheeky little Spanish numbers to Tallis, trains and just a few tra-la-las (or rather fa-la-las of a rather saucy nature). All this with some glorious bits of organ extravaganzas interposed. It's a programme chosen for the joy of music-making and we do hope you can join us. Our conductor is the wondrous Dr Andrew Storey and guest organist is John Carnelly, both of whom have made music many times with Ashtead Singers, so count both as friends and special musicians. Do put the date in your diary, and drop me an email for a ticket to this splendid concert. It's a snip at £8 for all this gorgeous stuff and a glass of wine too!
