Our next concert…

 

Saturday 26th October 2024, 7.30pm, Thaxted Church

2024 marks 150 years since the birth of Gustav Holst. To Celebrate this on the 26th October, The Friends Of Thaxted Church are arranging a performance of Holst’s The Planets in Thaxted Parish Church, by the Saffron Walden Symphony Orchestra.
Holst wrote this important work while he lived and was Church Organist in Thaxted.
As this work was written for a very large orchestra, this is going to be a magnificent experience so book early to avoid disappointment.
Tickets for the concert are now available online at;

If you are interested in joining the orchestra, please do get in touch. We are always happy to hear from new players. Many of our members travel some distance to play with us; however, we are particularly keen to hear from musicians living near Saffron Walden or in the district of Uttlesford.
