Last week the concert at The Chapel, Park Lane organised by Roger Rowe with Ben Johnson/Tom Primrose had to be cancelled due to travel problems.

It has been rescheduled for FRIDAY 20^th MAY at 7.30pm so hopefully that is ok for those who were going to attend last week. Roger is hoping it will be a sellout as all proceeds  go to support the Southrepps Festival in August.

Roger says ‘The next few weeks have developed into something of a songfest, in addition to Elizabeth Watts recital on July 10th there is a new recital scheduled for Friday 3^rd June featuring the much acclaimed mezzo  Susan Platts who with the American horn player Neil Kimel & pianist Libby Burgess. They play a mouth watering programme of Schubert, Britten and Mahler – details below – and don’t forget John Mills on 26^th June – hope to see you, Roger’
