Cantamus - Parish News!
PARISH NEWS!
A year in the life of a parish is the theme for a concert with readings at St. Edmund’s Church in Shipston-on-Stour at 7.30.p.m. on Saturday evening 24th October.
Richard Emms’ chamber choir, Cantamus, and professional actors, Three’s Company, will be presenting an entertaining evening of words and music to support the costs of the church’s recently acquired grand piano. The piano needs on-going repairs and maintenance!
The programme traces events in the parish throughout the year, including love and loss, outings and gossip, children’s corner, and a visit from the Bishop. The music varies from Purcell to Cole Porter, from Brahms to George Shearing, and there is an unforgettable version of the Annunciation in a reading from Gervaise Finn. This promises to be an evening to remember!
Tickets cost £8, and are available from Roger Clarke’s Electrical Shop in Shipston, from one of the Ministry Team (tel 01608 661249), and on the door.
