A Celebration of Christmas
Once again our friends the Bowers-Broadbents, with James and Victoria Cross and their friends,
will delight us with their collection of seasonal songs and amusing readings.
Audience participation will be required in the carols.
Many of our audience please us by commenting that Christmas does not start until after the Dingley Christmas Concert.
We agree that it is a great occasion and not to be missed.
This popular event will be in Dingley Parish Church and all are welcome - tickets still available.
Sorry, Supper in The Porch House is already SOLD OUT . However Dingley Lodge (01858 535365) are offering a 2 course festive meal with glass of mulled wine for £16 and The Queen's Head, Sutton Bassett (01858 463530) will also welcome concert goers. Please get in touch with them to book.

Ensembles from Chethams School of Music
More details to come for this concert in Dingley Parish Church with lunch in The Porch House first for those requesting it. It might even be warm enough for a picnic?
Sunday 10th May 2009 : 3pm
Adam Walker (flute) and Sally Pryce (harp)
Adam Walker is a stunning Young Concert Artists Trust musician who has played at the Proms and for us at Dingley in July. We decided he had to come back, and soon.
Summer Festival
Instead of concentrating all our efforts on holding concerts in one week in the summer and therefore excluding those who are on holiday at that time,
we are extending the Summer Season so that there is a concert every fortnight or so. Hopefully during that time we will get good weather and you
can bring a picnic to enjoy the grounds of Dingley Hall before or after our concerts.
Saturday 27th June : 7.30pm
The Heath Quartet
The "star" performers in the Young Concert Artists Trust, this quartet is already making a name for itself and appearing in prestigious venues.
Their programme will contain Schubert's "Death and the Maiden" and probably a Haydn Quartet "The Frog".
Sunday 12th July : 3pm
Morgan Szymanski (guitar) and Ruth Rogers (violin)
Morgan was a popular performer on his last visit to Dingley. The combination of guitar and violin might seem an unusual one but the programmes they perform are varied and interesting: Bach; Manuel de Falla;Paganini;Piazolla and Bartok - their exact programme will be confirmed nearer the time.
Ruth is a young violinist,she will be only 29/30 when she comes to Dingley she already has a career in which she has performed with distinguished international artists and groups and which has taken her all over the world.
This would be very suitable timing for a picnic in the grounds first, but if you
prefer a meal indoors, lunch will be available in the Porch House from 1pm.
