Another wonderful year

An audience of nearly 200 were thrilled by Steven Devine's inventive and classy Vivaldi programme, rounding off another successful year of concerts at King Charles. The Devine Musicke and Decimus Consort pictured here in rehearsal.

Our seven concerts this year have featured two of the country's most celebrated tenor soloists, James Gilchrist and Mark Padmore; Bennett Memorial school chamber choir; local rising star Hannah Roberts; the Musical & Amicable Society; and a fabulous opera gala. 

Our next concert falls on Saturday 27th January 2024 - the weekend of the King Charles Festival, on which the church marks the anniversary of the execution of King Charles I (30th January 1649). Nowadays, this festival includes an annual lecture and special services, celebrating the life of the parish, rather than the sombre services of repentence that originally took place on this date! 

King Charles Festival Epiphany Concert Saturday 27th January, 7pm 
With Baroque ensemble 'Dei Gratia'. A programme celebrating the epiphany season through arias, duos and instrumental items with readings. Music by Bach, Handel, Buxtehude, Telemann, Locke and Green.
