Christmas is coming!

Barts Great Hall is now closed for a few years for renovation. Our new home is Holy Sepulchre without Newgate – just down the road opposite the Old Bailey!  The Team at Holy Sepulchre have given us a great welcome – and we held our first public event on Saturday – a “Come & Sing” Mozart Requiem and Nelson Mass. The orchestra of approximately 30 strong and about 60 singers had a wonderful musical day in the Musician’s Church.

Thank you Holy Sepulchre – we have arrived and feel fully welcomed!
