The Lark Ascending Concert 

We collected a further £308 for the
Red Cross Ukraine appeal,
​making a total of a little over £1800 since we began in March
​Thank to everyone who has contributed to this most worthy cause.

Our 19 March concert of classical music included favourite orchestral music (Hebrides Overture and Italian Symphony) ​and the beautiful "Oh, For the Wings of a Dove" ​plus part songs by both Felix Mendelssohn and his lesser known sister, Fanny.

​​​DONATIONS TO RED CROSS FOR UKRAINE
The voluntary collection at the end of the concert was in aid of Ukrainian refugees. 
​Donations are welcome here: 

RED CROSS FOR UKRAINE

The Metropolitan Cathedral Concerts Society regrets that - because of the pandemic - it has not yet been possible to find a suitably safe space for us to rehearse and perform at the Cathedral.   
Instead, we will be giving concerts at other venues in the local community from now until further notice.
These concerts will typically be shorter than pre-pandemic events, usually around 75 minutes without an interval.
This is to reduce the risk of infection.
Although legal constraints have now largely been lifted, the organisers strongly advise you to maintain social distancing conventions and to use face coverings if possible
