Carols by
Candle Light
features your favourite Christmas Music plus
some pleasant new surprises.
Mark the Christmas Season in the Gothic Cathedral splendour
of the Landmark
Arts Centre in a family celebration programme of innovative and traditional
music. Surrey Brass, Concordia,
St. Anne's School Choir join together
once again for our traditional festive event
that everyone will enjoy.
This
concert has become an annual fixture for Surrey Brass, who partner with other
performing organisations regularly to put on innovative and entertaining
concerts with music ranging from Bach via a Mexican cantina to Star Wars.
The
brass ensemble, formed in 2001, has gained a reputation for creativity,
commissioning music to accompany silent
films, and in 2007, a piece to commemorate
Concorde, which they recorded during
the summer. They are based at Reeds School, Cobham and in 2008 would like to to
work more with charities and young people.
Surrey Brass is delighted to welcome local
resident Mark Curry to present
Carols by
Candle Light.
Mark is a versatile, popular presenter and actor who has been in showbusiness
since the age of seven. His current television work includes the garden makeover series “Gardening Angels”
for UK Style, playing the role of Kevin in the new series of “Last of the Summer
Wine” and presenting on “Thomas Cook TV” as well as contributing to BBC
Breakfast.
Concordia
Voices is a professionally directed, amateur chamber choir of approximately
forty voices. Their repertoire spans over four centuries, from the Renaissance to
the present day, and includes a wide range of sacred and secular music. The
choir is based in Hampton Hill, Middlesex, on the outskirts of London, and
rehearses in St. James's Parish Church,
an elegant Victorian church with a fine acoustic.
St.
Anne's School Choiris based at St
Anne's School Chertseyand
is run by Carolyn Spencer, the music coordinator at the school. The school
boasts three choirs: the main junior choir which consists of around thirty
7-11 year olds, an infant choir for the 4-7 year olds and a special boys’
choir which tries to encourage a special interest from boys. We perform in
several concerts and competitions throughout the year. This is our sixth
year of coming to the Landmark and the event is always a highlight in our
year; we hope that you find it as magical and enjoyable as we do!
Everyone is encouraged to join in the singing of Carols.
To complete the seasonal celebration, mulled wine and mince pies will be
on sale at the interval!
