Standard concert dress for Carols for All, please.

If you have library copies of the white Carol books, please hand them in after the concert, along with the Messiah extracts. These all need to be returned to the lenders before Christmas. If you are unable to take part, please make sure that any loan music is returned prior to the concert.

Please do push ticket sales as much as you can – the number of patrons (season ticket holders) is low again so far this season. Just a reminder for our new members, the Patrons Ticket is effectively a season ticket to all three concerts in the season, with a sizeable discount on the full ticket prices.
