Alternative Summer Concert at Grantham’s St Wulfram’s Church will support choir residency in St David’s

An ‘alternative summer concert’ will be held to help fund a youth choir's residence in Wales.

St Wulfram’s Church in Grantham will host an ‘Alternative Summer Concert’ tomorrow evening (Thursday) from 7.30pm.

The event will see the church’s talented choristers and youth choir perform solo instrumental and vocal music.

This will collect funds that will go towards the choristers’ residency in St Davids this summer.

Tickets are £7.50 each (£5 for concessions) and under 12s can enter for free.

A 24-hour music marathon held at St Wulfram’s last weekend raised around £2,500 towards the choir’s St David’s residency in August.

On Saturday, July 15, at 11.30am, St Wulfram’s Youth Choir will be in recital. There is free entry with a retiring collection.

On Thursday, July 20, at 7.30pm, former St Wulfram’s organ scholars, Joseph Beech (sub-organist of Durham Cathedral) and Matilda Johnston (Royal Academy of Music) will be in recital.

The Hitchin Concert Band will perform at St Wulfram’s Church on Saturday July 15 at 7.30pm.

All funds raised by the concert will be donated to the church, with tickets costing £5 each.
