General notices
If notified in advance the stewards will hold seats for small young people and their family and friends so that they can see the performers.
The stewards will always make room for wheelchair users - it really helps if advance notice is given so the necessary space can be created with adjoining seats for family and friends.
We look forward to welcoming music lovers to St Mary’s Church.

Guy Johnston
Guy Johnston is one of the most exciting British cellists of his generation.
Guy has performed with many leading international orchestras and recent
seasons have included a BBC Prom with BBC National Orchestra of Wales
and concertos with The Hallé to name but a few.
Guy is also Associate Professor of Cello at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York and a guest Professor of Cello at the Royal Academy of Music.
Guy joins us to play J S Bach’s Solo Cello Suite No.2 in D minor, BWV
1008, and No. 3 in C major, BWV 1009.
Ensemble Renard was founded in 2018 by musicians and
friends from the Royal Academy of Music and the Guildhall
School. A wind quintet at its core, they put on exciting and
varied performances for audiences of all backgrounds.
After fewer than six months of playing
together, Ensemble Renard won the Royal Academy of
Music’s Nicholas Blake Prize for wind chamber music, and
from there have gone on to give regular recitals and workshops across the country, to much acclaim.
They will be performing Barber’s Summer Music op 31,
Mozart’s Andante in F Major K.616 and Taffanel’s Wind Quintet in G minor
