Briantspuddle Singers
Having not performed
together as a group for over
two years during the
pandemic Briantspuddle
Singers are very much
looking forward to staging a
concert of Lent music in the
prestigious and beautiful
Milton Abbey on Saturday 9
th
April at 7.30pm.
We will be performing the
ever-popular Crucifixion by
Stainer, accompanied by
local musicians playing the Abbey’s Willis organ and the chamber organ owned
by the DRMS. Also on the programme are popular pieces by Victoria, Viadana,
Handel, Mozart, Brahms, Vaughan Williams, ending with two joyful and exuberant
works by recent composers – Richard Shephard and Alan Bullard.
Choir members are all eagerly anticipating this chance to come together to sing
once again in these lovely surroundings, and look forward to welcoming a large
and enthusiastic audience to share their love of music during these still very
challenging times. Tickets for this event are £12.50 and are available at the door,
from any choir member or tel: 01929 554055
