    It is our pleasure to again welcome talented young musicians from Royal Holloway University of London who entertained us brilliantly last May at the time of their end-of-year recitals under the direction of Tim Travers-Brown, the distinguished counter-tenor who has generously helped All Saints in recent years. And underlining our support for young musicians, singers from neighbouring Thorpe House School have accepted an invitation to participate too. Programme details can be found below.

    Friday 9th Royal Holloway Samuel Richards - baritone, singing Vaughan-Williams Songs of Travel with Tom Jesty accompanying. Alicia Hunt - mezzo-soprano, singing Debussy, Mozart, Chausson, Bernstein, Brittena and Poulenc.

    Friday 16th Royal Holloway | Thorpe HouseThorpe House School - Singers from Year 7 will perform a piece for us. Toby Wright - countertenor, singing Handel, Purcell, Mozart, Quilter, Michael Head, Ivor Novello, Rodgers & Hammerstein and Bernstein with Tim Travers-Brown accompanying. Grace Hindle - mezzo-soprano, singing Bizet, Elgar, Handel, Berlioz and Schubert with Daniel Ayers accompanying.

    These informal weekly performances lasting about 50 minutes will again showcase the enthusiasm and confidence of accomplished young performers. Tickets are not required but an optional 5 donation on the door to help with expenses is suggested. Come a few minutes early to enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a biscuit in the nave. By all means bring a packed lunch if wished. Everyone is welcome, young and old, so do invite your family, friends and neighbours. No booking needed: please just walk in.
