THE internationally renowned Cantabile Girls’ Choir from Hereford Cathedral School and junior singers from Much Marcle C of E Primary School will take part in an evening of fabulous music on Friday, May 6 at St Bartholomew’s church, Much Marcle. .

Cantabile, winners of the BBC Songs of Praise School Choir of the Year, will present a programme of largely secular music interspersed with solos and duets accompanied by organist Laurence John and directed by Jo Williamson.

The concert, which starts at 7pm and is part of a series of concerts in collaboration with Herefordshire Historic Churches Trust (HHCT), offers a prime opportunity for a local audience to hear the most talented young girls’ choir in the UK perform in one of the county’s most beautiful churches.

Proceeds from the retiring collection will be split between St. Bartholomew’s and HHCT who help to maintain Herefordshire’s places of worship. It will also support a second season of ‘Music in Quiet Places’.
