Thank you to Peter for sending this. One for the diary or early tickets.

Abingdon and District Music Society will hold two concerts in March.

The orchestral concert will be on Saturday 11th March, and the choir concert on Saturday 25th March, both in St Helen’s Church, West St Helens Street, Abingdon OX14 5BS, starting at 7:30pm. They will be conducted by Alexander Walker, and Kate Bailey will lead the orchestra. If people come by car, it would be best to arrive early as parking can be difficult.

Saturday 11th March:
Grieg – “Peer Gynt” (excerpts from both suites)
Glazunov – Violin Concerto (soloist Alda Dizdari)
Mussorgsky – “Pictures from an Exhibition”

Saturday 25th March:
Vaughan Williams – Five Mystical Songs
Bob Chilcott – Little Jazz Mass
Karl Jenkins – Suite, “The Armed Man”

For each concert, tickets cost £15 at the door or £13 in advance (children £1 in both cases). Advance tickets can be obtained from Peter Smith.
