Programme of Concerts, Presentations and Special Services

Sat 28 Jan. 11am. St Edward’s. Coffee Concert: Through Gilded Trellises...a song recital. £2 inc. refreshments (10% of proceeds will be given to Marie Curie). Soprano Rhiannon Llewellyn and pianist Finnegan Downie Dear present a mixed programme of Wolf's mournful Mignon Songs, Ravel's iridescent interpretation of Jules Renard's animal poems and Walton's colourful setting of Edith Sitwell's unconventional Façade poems. This programme should serve as a wonderful antidote to the January blues with sparkling introductions by the musicians themselves. www.rhiannonllewellyn.weebly.com
