Come and hear some popular classics in the beautiful surroundings of Christchurch Priory.

The concert includes instantly recognisable 'Arrival of the Queen of Sheba' which perhaps you've heard at a wedding? The choir are very excited to listen to our beloved orchestra performing this and to be transported to the Queen’s grand entrance, surrounded by her retinue, as she steps into the bustling city of Jerusalem.

We will be performing in Latin, German and English: with translations provided in the programme.

What better way to spend a summer’s evening!
