Fourth Special Concert by Young Oxford Musicians

Following their delightful Concerts in St Barnabas’, Peasemore in 2011, 2013 and 2014, Sophie Biddell and friends have a further musical treat to offer us there at 7.45 pm on Saturday 18 February. Sophie, who is Director of Music at Christ Church Cathedral School in Oxford, is preparing another attractive evening of light classical music, to be performed by young professional musicians from Oxford. The concert is in aid of St Barnabas’ Church.


Rehearsals are under way, and we can look forward to enjoying performances by violin, oboe, clarinet, piano, and treble and soprano soloists, as well as a couple of small vocal groups. Many of the highly talented performers who have so impressed us at previous concerts will be returning to Peasemore for this occasion. The music is planned to include works by a wide range of composers, such as Bach, Brahms, Finzi and Maxwell Davies, as well as popular standards.


Sophie Biddell has directed the Christ Church College Choir at Westminster Abbey, and St Paul’s and Canterbury Cathedrals, as well as overseas in North America and China, and on BBC television. So this is a very special opportunity, not to be missed! Tickets at £10 will include wine in the interval. Admission for children up to 16 years is free. For bookings and further information please ring Jenny Maskell on 01635 248540 or Davina Palmer on 01635 248263.
