Following last year's sell out concert, this is your chance to mark the Christmas Season with a family celebration programme of traditional music. Surrey Brass and the Chapel Choir from the local Reeds School, Cobham join together for a special festive event that everyone can join in. The concert will feature seasonal readings by Mike Burnside. Surrey Brass will be directed by Robin Smith.

Revd. Samuel Gardner - Mike Burnside Mike Burnside is an actor and director most well known for his 10 years in 'The Bill' as Assistant Commissioner Hicks. His theatre work includes seasons at the RSC and the National (including "Madness of King George III") and he was the first Artistic Director of the Brockley Jack Theatre. He recently completed touring "Mrs. Warren's Profession".

Reed's Chapel Choir consists of up to 30 voices of all ages, and it sings regularly in the School chapel, as well as giving many concerts locally and in such venues as Guildford, Southwark and Arundel Cathedrals, and Hampton Court Palace. Each year it joins forces with the Reed's Choral Society, which includes parents, friends and staff, to perform a major choral work. These have included Vivaldi's Gloria, Purcell's Te Deum and Jubilate, Haydn's Requiem, and Carmina Burana at the Fairfield Hall Croydon with the Young Musicians' Symphony Orchestra.

Reeds School Choir will be directed by Iain Carmichael.

This family event is a wonderful way to begin Christmas celebrations for 2003. 
Don't miss it!
